| One of the most complete Chateauneufs I have ever tasted. This is classic 2010 with wonderfully pronounced fruit and excellent tannic support but, along with other top 2010s, it is the acidity that sets it apart. Superb. |

Critic Review:
The powerful, rich 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Anonyme reveals an off-the-chart level of extract, lots of glycerin (nearly 16% natural alcohol) and copious black cherry, blueberry, forest floor, lavender and graphite characteristics. This full-throttle red requires 3-4 years of cellaring and should keep for two decades." 95+/100 (Wine Advocate)
