Tasting notes
Even better (than the Vendange), the 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape Cotes Capelan is almost all Grenache (10% Mourvedre) that spent 18 months in 60% concrete tank and 40% small barrels. It dishes out awesome notes of black raspberry, cassis, toasted spice, licorice and roasted meats. Dense, full-bodied, ripe and layered, with fabulous purity of fruit, this knockout 2012 can be consumed anytime over the coming 10-15 years.
