WINE ADVOCATE – OCT. 31, 2017 – No 233 – JOE CZERWINSKI

92. The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Piedlong has been made since 2011. It’s 90% Grenache and 10% Mourvèdre, drawn from the Piedlong and Pignan lieux-dits. With 50% whole clusters, it’s quite floral upfront but also boasts plenty of cherry fruit and cinnamon. It’s full-bodied and creamy in texture, ending on a long, peppery note.
