Châteauneuf-du-Pape--Vintage 1994
Rhône, Domaine-bottled: Henri Bonneau
In original cartons
Tasting Note: The 1994's possess slightly coarse tannin, but wonderfully sweet, rich, concentrated fruit, huge body, and old-vine intensity and power. Henri Bonneau's is one of the few cellars where the bottled wines are significantly superior to the individual component parts tasted in the cellar (it's just the reverse in Burgundy). The 1994s are powerful, rich wines with the potential to be among the longest-lived and most massive wines of the vintage if the top cuvees are kept separate and bottled as Celestins, rather than blended together and bottled only as a Marie Beurrier. Last tasted 6/96. Robert Parker, Rhone Book (1997)
