Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee du Vatican 2010
- 92 points -
Very fleshy and succulent, with dark fig and linzer torte flavors that show anise and blackberry hints. Ample toasted spice and singed alder notes fill in on the finish, and this has a lovely silky feel despite its weight. Best from 2014 through 2026. 2,400 cases made.
