Lobenberg: Der Chante Le Merle ist so etwas wie die klassische Interpretation eines Chateauneufs. Wir haben hier also viel Grenache und einen Ausbau in großen Eichenfässern und etwas Demi-Muids für bis zu 18 Monate. Eine Selektion der Reben von 80 bis zu 90 Jahren, also echte Vieilles Vignes. Das duftet zart und intensiv nach Schlehe und roten Beeren. Dann kommt etwas Bleistift und auch weiße Blüten. Am Gaumen geht es geschliffen weiter, kräftiges Tannin, weiche Säure, aber auch eine feine und ausgewogene Frucht. Das braucht Zeit im Glas oder besser noch auf der Flasche. Bei aller Komplexität bleibt dieser Chateauneuf trinkig. 96-97/100

Parker über: Chateauneuf du Pape Chante le Merle Vieilles Vignes

-- Parker: The all whole-bunch 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Chante le Merle Vieilles Vignes is 85% Grenache, with the balance a mix of Mourvèdre and Syrah. The vines are all 80 to 90 years old, selected from parcels in Brusquières, Gardiole, Mont-Redon and Pignan. Glorious raspberry and cherry fruit picks up hints of mint and some stemmy notes, but they're remarkably well-integrated and should be completely absorbed within a couple of years. Full-bodied, rich and creamy in texture, this tour de force remains lively, silky and long on the finish. With 1,000 cases produced, it should be reasonably priced and reasonably available—an increasingly rare combination in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. 97/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: Chateauneuf du Pape Chante le Merle Vieilles Vignes

-- Jeb Dunnuck: The deepest colored of the trio and a true “Wow” wine, the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Folie is 80% Grenache and 20% Mourvèdre that was completely destemmed and brought up 10% new barrels, with the balance in demi-muids. An insane bouquet of black cherry liqueur, blackberries, crushed rocks, and pepper garrigue gives way to a full-bodied, incredibly polished, seamless Grenache. This beauty does everything right and possesses a vibrant, sexy texture, no hard edges, and a blockbuster finish. It will most likely merit a triple-digit score in a few years and cruise for a decade or more. 96+/100

Galloni über: Chateauneuf du Pape Chante le Merle Vieilles Vignes

-- Galloni: (made entirely with whole clusters) Deep, shimmering red. A highly complex, intensely perfumed bouquet evokes fresh red and dark berries, potpourri, exotic spices and garrigue and a vibrant mineral nuance builds in the glass. Shows superb depth and focus on the palate, offering deeply pitched raspberry, cherry pie, Asian spice and floral pastille flavors that deftly marry power to delicacy. Finishes sappy, gently tannic and extremely long, leaving behind vibrant mineral, spice and lavender notes. 95/100

Wine Spectator über: Chateauneuf du Pape Chante le Merle Vieilles Vignes

-- Wine Spectator: This has a lovely feel, with a silky but persistent structure allowing a range of creamed raspberry, damson plum and boysenberry fruit flavors to glide through, while light rooibos tea, sandalwood and anise accents chime throughout. Shows pretty floral lift at the end. Best from 2020 through 2036. 95/100
