100 % gamle Grenache-vinstokke. Indkogte frugter og marcipan, et meget komplekst aromaspektrum af mørke frugter. Ved første smag er tanninerne meget markante, men ekstremt polerede. I øjeblikket overskygger den enorme struktur stadig aromaerne i høj grad. Meget imponerende fylde, der ikke lader vinen blive blød. I denne fase ret lukket, men sandsynligvis den mest massive Chaupin i denne cuvées hidtidige historie. I eftersmagen medicinske noter, brombær og friskhakkede urter. Meget imponerende og lidt majestætisk.

Parker om: Chateauneuf du Pape Chaupin

I’ve drunk over a case of the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvée Chaupin from my cellar, and this was easily one of the finest bottles (it was from magnum) I’ve ever had. Made from close to 100% Grenache and brought up in foudre, it’s a crazy good, monumental beauty that offers loads of ripe blackberries, black raspberries, crushed flowers and garrigue aromas and flavors. Concentrated, layered and unctuous, with a to-die-for texture, no hard edges and a huge finish, this beauty is still youthful and is just now starting to show hints of maturity. When it’s this good, I can’t recommend waiting, but I’ve no doubt this will continue to offer this level of quality for at least another decade.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateauneuf du Pape Chaupin

Absolutely stunning, the 2007 Domaine de la Janasse Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Chaupin is packed with pure, clean and fresh aromas of assorted dark fruits, blackberry, lavender, flowers and spice. On the palate, it’s full bodied with beautifully sweet fruit ripe, fine grained tannins, perfect balance and a finish that simply won’t quite. This has the fruit to drink well young but the structure to age for 20 years.
