Score 89/100 · Drink 2003-2014, Robert Parker, Dec 2001

The 1999 Pignan Chateauneuf du Pape displays a light to medium ruby color in addition to a gorgeous nose of sweet kirsch liqueur, tobacco, and floral scents. Medium to full-bodied, lush, and accessible, with light tannin in the finish, it should be at its finest between 2003-2014. Importers: Alain Junguenet, Wines of France, Mountainside, NJ; tel.
