The 2013 Chateauneuf du Pape les Hauts Lieux incorporates more Mourvèdre (30%) and comes from the late ripening block on the upper plateau to the south of the estate. Inky colored, it gives up killer notes of blueberries, blackberries, licorice, crushed rock and meaty nuances. Medium to full-bodied, structured and tannic with solid concentration, it's one of the more serious wines in the vintage and will need short term cellaring. I suspect it will have 15-20 years of longevity.
