Lot 20 Details
CLOS SAINT-JEAN CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE SANCTUS SANCTORUM 2009Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
More flamboyant, open and exotic, with notes of kirsch liqueur, cassis, toasted almonds, sandalwood, lavender, and crushed flowers that you can smell from across the room, the 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Sanctus Sanctorum expands on the palate, with incredible concentration, building, sweet tannin and a finish that just won’t quit. Where the 2010 cuts a more focused path, this puppy is overflowing with fruit and texture. It too is a perfect wine that will evolve for another couple decades, yet given this showing, don’t hesitate to crack bottles over the coming couple of years. 100 WA
1 mag. (OWC) per lot $1,300 - $1,500
