T. Allemand Cornas Reynard 2005<br />

Northern Rhone<br />

“Densely packed, with tar, olive and maduro tobacco notes up front,<br />

holding the massive core of braised fig, plum sauce and tar at bay for<br />

now. The muscular finish shows flashes of iron, garrigue and graphite.<br />

Very, very long. Best from 2011 through 2024.” JM for Wine Spectator,<br />

Chapoutier Ermitage Le Meal 2005<br />

Northern Rhone<br />

“There are 481 cases of the black/purple 2005 Ermitage Le Meal. As<br />

always, classic blackberry, asphalt, charcoal, and beef blood notes<br />

jump from the glass of this intense wine. Full-bodied, with staggering<br />

concentration and a personality not terribly dissimilar from a first-growth<br />

Pauillac, but showing no evidence of oak whatsoever (and that is in<br />

spite of being aged in 100% new oak casks), this wine needs 10-12<br />

years of bottle age, and should keep for 50-100 years.” R. Parker, 96<br />

Chapoutier Ermitage Le Pavillon 1995<br />

Northern Rhone<br />

“The 1995 Ermitage Le Pavillon is magnificent. The wine is more<br />

accessible than the 1996 (due to lower acidity and more immediately<br />

accessible glycerin and fruit), with a magnificent black/purple color, and<br />

layers of cassis fruit, smoky, roasted meat, and mineral characteristics<br />

that are the result of barrel fermentation and high extraction of fruit. It<br />

is huge, but not heavy, gorgeously proportioned, and dazzlingly welldefined.<br />

A monster Hermitage of immense proportions, it somehow<br />

manages to keep everything in balance. This backward Pavillon will<br />

require 10-12 years of cellaring. It should age well through the first half<br />

of the next century.” R. Parker, 99 pts. 10/97<br />
