Chateauneuf du Pape red and white vintage 2010 : a vintage with a very great aging potential

Thanks to a very hot and dry spring, the red wines of Chateauneuf du Pape vintage 2010 were fresh, fruity and structured. They took a more austere aspect to their youth than in previous years. Their aromas of almost raw fruits and their strong tannins required to be developed over a decade or so.

They now display a range of characteristics that combine the vivacity and strength of youth with the nuances of evolution. The solidity of their tannic structure balanced by their freshness highlights the typical aromas of the bottle aging such as candied red and black fruits, notes of flavours and candied olives and patinated leather.

The finish is long and fresh, on smooth tannins, patinated leather and candied fruits. They can without fear be kept for another ten years or tasted now, according to the preferences of the guests.

Grilled red meats accompanied by sauces with spices and red fruits, but also stewed dishes of meats and vegetables cooked at low temperature with beautiful aromas or aged cheeses.

"The nose is more complex and more racy than that of 2011, really expressive of this cuvée in what it has most original, between tobacco, spices, liquorice and with that tannic firmness that still leaves hope for a lot of longevity. It must be decantered at least two hours in advance." 94 Our vintage Générations Gaston Philippe, 2011. By Michel Bettane, June-July-August 2022 / #28 [EN MAGNUM]
