Clos du Mont Olivet 1995
Chateauneuf du Pape - Joseph Sabon
90/100 Parker
When to drink this wine : Can be drunk now.
Tasting notes : ‘The 1995 Châteauneuf du Pape reveals a deep ruby colour with purple hues. A sexy, ripe wine, it offers up aromas of kirsch, black raspberry and pepper, accompanied by fine glycerin and moderate tannins. Full-bodied, frank, round and concentrated’.
- Terroir: The grapes come from a wide variety of localities: Montalivet, Les Blachières, Coste Froide, Bois Seneseau, Palestor, Bois Dauphin , Pied de Baud, Les Bousquets, Les Parrans, Les Marines, Le Bois de la Ville, Cansaud, Les Gallimardes and Les Serres. They extend from the north to the south of the Appellation. The soils are mainly composed of quartzite colluvium, marine clay, sand and mollassic sandstone.
- Blend : 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 6% Mourvèdre, 4% Cinsault, Counoise, Vaccarèse, Muscardin, Terret noir, Picpoul noir.
- Vinification : The vats are filled by gravity with a partial destemming. The work of the wines is done without seeking a maximum extraction but privileges more the elegance and the freshness. The free-run juice and the press juice are aged separately, mainly in concrete vats where they carry out their malolactic fermentation. After blending, the wine is aged in tuns.
- Alcohol content : 15 %.
