The 2002 Cotes du Rhone is primarily Grenache with some Counoise and Mourvedre included in the blend, it is better than most 2002 Chateauneuf du Papes. Jean-Pierre Daumen (only 43 years old) is at the top of his game ... and we are all the beneficiaries.A new label debuted in 2001 as Jean-Paul Daumen is fed up with the bickering going on between the two Chateauneuf du Pape syndicates. He has eliminated the engraved bottle, using a standard Burgundy-styled bottle, and also has a new label. Daumen told me that after 2001, there will no longer be a Cuvee Vieilles Vignes as everything will go into the traditional Chateauneuf du Pape bottling. The only exception will be great vintages when they will produce limited quantities of a Reserve cuvee.Importer: A Christopher Cannan Selection, various American importers including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel.
