A family Chateauneuf-du-Pape from a small, traditional estate in the heart of the appellation, now showing the rewards of cellar age. The Mestre family has worked these galets-strewn vineyards since the early 1970s, hand-harvesting Grenache-led blends rounded out with Mourvedre and Syrah. This 2010 hails from one of the southern Rhone's most celebrated vintages, a year that produced structured, long-lived wines, and at fifteen years old it has shed its baby fat and moved into its mature stride. Decant and drink now over the next few years.
