"The 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Reserve, which was made from frighteningly low yields, has a whopping 16.5% alcohol, compared to the 2010's 16.4, yet it is not even noticeable, given the luxurious concentration and extraordinary depth and richness this wine possesses. A phenomenal example of opulence, super concentration, old vine viticulture, and impeccable winemaking, this black/blue/purple wine displays notes of spring flowers, graphite, blueberries, blackberries, licorice and some charcoal notes, even though it is aged totally in old wood foudres. Given its opulence, it can be drunk relatively early on, but this wine will keep for15-20 years, based on how slowly vintages such as 1999 and 2000 are aging.
The DAUMAN wines marked with asterisks are from Jean-Paul Dauman’s new negociant operation. Most of them actually come from estate fruit that he has declassified from his vineyards. In both 2009 and 2010, Jean-Paul Daumen produced approximately 150-200 cases of Chateauneuf du Pape Reserve, which is certainly one of the world’s greatest red wines, but virtually impossible to find. You will have much more luck finding either his 2009 or 2010 Chateauneuf du Papes."

"Rock-star stuff that could merit a tripe digit score sometime in the future, the 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Reserve knocks it out of the park with its massive, decadent, ripe and concentrated profile. Showing plenty of cassis, spring flowers, mint, licorice and ground herbs, it’s a hedonistic and blockbuster-styled effort that will drink well for two decades."

"One of the most singular and impressive wine made in the world."
