Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2000 - red wine
A rocking bottle of wine and quite possibly a benchmark Chateauneuf, the 2000 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de mon Aïeul is open for business with knockout aromatics of garrigue, saddle leather, meat and perfectly ripe, licorice infused fruit. Complex but also down right hedonistic, this is full bodied with sweet fruit, a...

Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2004 - red wine
There was no Reserve des Deux Frères made in 2004, so the 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de Mon Aieul received all of the top grapes. Still youthful and lively, with less density and depth than the '03, it offers classic notes of garrigue, mushrooms, olives, dried spice, kirsch and blackberry. Full-bodied and concentrated, especially in the vintage, it...

Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2007 - red wine
the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee du Mon Aieul (100% tank-aged Grenache). It represents an awesome naked/virginal expression of Grenache from three vineyard parcels planted in sand, clay, and limestone soils. After tasting this wine on five separate occasions, I can state with certainty, it has the most saturated color of any Mon Aieul produced to date....

Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2009 - red wine
Showing much more evolved and open from bottle than barrel, the 2009 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de mon Aïeul is 100% Grenache (from the lieux-dits Les Serres, La Crau, & Guigasse) that’s aged 70% in tank, 30% in 300-liter demi-muid, and the rest in larger 600-liter barrels, with no new oak used. It shows a semi-opaque...

Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2003 - red wine
The best bottle of this I've had (and I've had plenty), Usseglio's 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de Mon Aieul is a blockbuster and one of the true stars of this vintage. Almost all Grenache (there's a small part of Syrah and Cinsault) that was harvest between September 1-13, partially destemmed and aged in both tank and foudre, this massive, voluptuous...

Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2010 - red wine
The Usseglio’s consider the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de Mon Aieul to be their greatest to date. I’ve done numerous tastings with the 2010 and 2007 side by side, and more times than not, I think the 2007 is the better wine. Time will tell though, and both are sensational wines that readers should have in their cellars. The inky colored 2010 is 100%...

Vieux Donjon 2017 Magnum - red wine
it’s a beautiful, elegant, classic wine. Garrigue, pepper, assorted dark fruits, and lavender notes all emerge from this balanced, medium to full-bodied effort that shines for its purity and elegance. It will come into its own with just short-term cellaring and keep for 10-15 years.

Usseglio cuvée de mon aieul 2016...
Getting more than one exclamation in the notes, the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de Mon Aïeul is a deep, rich yet vibrant red that offers a kaleidoscope of kirsch liqueur, garrigue, crushed flowers, Asian spices, and cured meats. It's more opulent and sexier than the 2010, fresher and purer than the 2007, has deep, full-bodied aromas and flavors, and a...

Janasse 2017 - white wine
The 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc includes slightly more Clairette and less Grenache than normal, all due to the difficulty in the yields of Grenache in 2017. Bottled in May, it offers a purity and elegance that’s hard to find as well as notes of white flowers, white peach, honeysuckle, and spice. With subtle minerality, medium to full body, and nicely...

Gardine Marie Leoncie 2016 - white wine
Just slightly darker in color, the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Cuvée des Générations Marie-Léoncie checks in as a blend of mostly Roussanne, with smaller amounts of Clairette, aged in new oak. It's more layered, complex and nuanced, with notes of tangerine, honeysuckle, sautéed limes and citrus giving way to a medium to full-bodied, rich, beautifully...

Gardine 2017 - white wine
the 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc gives up clean, crisp notes of citrus blossom, lime and pear, medium-bodied richness, vibrant acidity and an impeccably balanced style on the palate. Possessing both freshness and richness, it will be versatile on the dinner table over the coming 2-4 years, and I suspect even longer.

Vaudieu Vieilles Roussanes 2017 - white wine
Of the two whites, the 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Vieilles Roussannes appears the be the clear winner in 2017. Brioche, caramelized apples, spice, and ample citrus notes all flow to a full-bodied, powerful, yet beautifully elegant Roussanne that will benefit from a year or two of bottle age.

Fondreche Divergente 2015 - red wine
Reminding me of one of the Sélections Parcellaires Hermitage from Michel Chapoutier, the 2015 Ventoux Divergente is 90% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre that was mostly destemmed and brought up in foudre. Crème de cassis, black raspberries, peppered meats, graphite, and liquid rock notes all flow to a fat, unctuous, sexy Syrah that has beautiful acidity, fine...

Vieux Télégraphe 2016 - red wine
Moving to the grand vin, the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is backward and dense, with a huge mid-palate, notes of framboise, black cherries, roasted herbs, nori, and spice, a thick, opulent texture, and yet no sense of weight or heaviness. With ripe, polished tannin and a blockbuster finish, it might just be the greatest wine from this estate to date.
