Charbonnière Chateauneuf Vieilles Vignes 2007 89-92+ Points - eRobertParker.com
"With aeration, the closed bouquet releases scents of pine cones, seaweed, black cherry liqueur, spice box, and raspberries. This is a big wine for the vintage, revealing medium to full body, decent acidity, mouth-searing tannin, and a long finish. It probably has a lot more to it, but it was difficult to penetrate and fully analyze. This wine is atypical for a 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape. It needs 3-4 years of cellaring, and should keep for 15 or more years.
This is one of the most well-run estates in Chateauneuf du Pape thanks to the meticulous and passionate efforts of proprietor Michel Maret (readers should not overlook is Vacqueyras, one of the finest wines of that appellation). While the 2006s are not as powerful or rich as the 2005s, it is an excellent vintage for Charbonniere. In fact, I was somewhat surprised that there was less significant difference between the cuvees than usual." - RP
