Pierre Usseglio, Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2009 Bordeaux Rouge Aromas of currants

Aromas of currants

Medium to full-bodied and beautifully balanced on the palate

and just needs 1-2 years of bottle age

ripe dark fruit flavors of cherries

full-bodied wine packs a remarkable amount of fruit and richness

Pierre Usseglio, Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2009 Bordeaux Rouge Aromas of currants92 points Vinous Vivid ruby. Deep red and dark berry aromas show good clarity and turn spicier with air.

This wine is showing far more elegance now than it did last year. Jan 2012 92 points Robert Parker The 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape (80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 5%
