Grand Veneur Chateauneuf-du-Pape Les Origines - 2007 (750ml) Maipo Valley This is the first Cristal94 points The Wine Cellar Insider It has been a few years since I checked in on this wine. Now, it is fully ready for pop and pour, this beauty kicks off with black raspberries, cherry jam, black olives, herbs, and sage on the nose. Round and polished with loads of sweet, ripe, licorice and herb infused dark red fruits and luscious textures on the palate, enjoy this now, as it shows so well. Drink from 2022 2027.
