Domaine de Villeneuve "Les Vieilles Vignes"
Chateauneuf-du-Pape (Appellation Chateauneuf-du-Pape contrôlée)
Domaine de Villeneuve, Route de Courthezon, Orange, France (2004)
Full strawberry nose on opening this bottle - divine! Full, robust, great legs, and great longevity. Complex layering of fruit, earth notes, and slight spice, this wine is definitely reflective of the price tag ($$).
We enjoyed it this evening with boeuf bourgignon, artichoke risotto, cheese, and salad.
I was saving this wine for a special occasion, and I am very glad I did. It was worth the wait, and the investment.
