Tardieu Laurent Chateauneuf du Pape VV 2021 New Zealand Alexandre Abel and the whole

Alexandre Abel and the whole Ponsot team should be very proud indeed

Here too there is a whiff of menthol character sitting atop the aromas of green tea

Typically deep ruby in colour

This is a big and well-made Pouilly-Fuissé that should amply repay mid-term cellaring

Tardieu Laurent Chateauneuf du Pape VV 2021 New Zealand Alexandre Abel and the whole93 Points Jeb Dunnuck "More lifted notes of blue fruits, ground pepper, and violets emerge from the 2021 Chteauneuf Du Pape Vieilles Vignes, a concentrated, layered, incredibly impressive 2021 that has good mid palate depth, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It has the structure and depth to benefit from a year or three of bottle age and keep for 10 15 years." Jeb Dunnuck 2023
