Domaine des Sénéchaux Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2005

mvdhoorn      Holanda

Medium-Full Bodied, Dry, For laying down, Southern Rhône Blend, 14.5% alc.
Tasting Notes: "This is a very fine effort from this well-known estate in Chateauneuf du Pape, which was recently
sold to Jean-Michel Cazes, the proprietor of Lynch-Bages in Bordeaux. The blend at present remains 65%
Grenache, 18% Syrah, 15% Mourvedre, and the rest Cinsault and Counoise. Cut from the same mold as the 2004,
the 2005 Senechaux may turn out to be slightly better as it shows a classic concoction of Provencal herbs
intermixed with roasted meats, sweet cherry jam, and some smoke, licorice, and incense. It is dense, rich, finely
tuned, and perhaps has a bit more length and freshness than the 2004."
