Press Releases

"A candidate for wine of the vintage is Grand Veneurs 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Origines. A dense plum/purple color is followed by an intoxicatingly heady perfume of ground pepper, spice box, garrigue, meat juices, and copious quantities of red and black fruits. In the mouth, it exhibits superb texture, silky tannins, and a long, full-bodied, powerful finish with no hard edges. Consume it over the next 10-15 years."

  • Dollar for dollar, this is one of the best Chateauneuf's out there, a 94 point effort with red fruit, spice, great complexity, and silky tannins. The Grand Veneur can be aged for the long haul (10-15 years) or to be appreciated now with good decanting.

  • As "a candidate for wine of the vintage", the Grand Veneur is a great buy for Chateauneuf fans as a wine for drinking now or adding to a collection!

      What a great deal! Unfortunately, my wine fridge in my NYC apartment is bursting at the seams, so I’ll have to pass (unless you guys want to send me a second wine fridge!)
