The 2009 Château Cabrières Châteauneuf du Pape is now available at your favorite ABC store!!!

Don’t miss out on one of the best wines from Châteauneuf du Pape currently available from the outstanding 2009 vintage. Robert Parker rated the 2009 Château Cabrières Châteauneuf du Pape red 89-91 points and acknowledged that this large 70 acres “could be one of the leaders of the appellation”.

A blend of 65% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 12% Mourvedre, and  8% Cinsault, when I tasted it the 2009 Château Cabrières Châteauneuf du Pape exhibits dark, saturated ruby color and aromas and flavors of black cherry, cassis, blue flowers and black pepper; full-bodied with solid tannins and  a long-lasting finish.

 The wine requires a proper decanting for at least an hour before consumption or could be cellared for extended aging for up to 10 years.

 It is offered at $29.99 and selling fast!!

At the same time check out the 2010 Château Cabrières Cotes du Rhone ($15.99), a personal favorite of mine.

Santé!
