The Les Cailloux 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape looks to be superb as well. Yields were low because over 30% of Brunel’s Grenache was lost in the poor flowering (the average was 20 hectoliters per hectare). The wine reveals a dense ruby/purple color (more saturated than the 2009), slightly more definition, structure and acidity, and precise blueberry and black raspberry fruit notes intermixed with licorice and a floral component. Full-bodied and deep, it will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring and should evolve effortlessly for 15-20 years. 92-95 points
