Cristia’s 2007 Cotes du Rhone reveals copious quantities of licorice, earth, tapenade, and sweet black currant and cherry fruit. Medium-bodied, pure, and soft, it is ideal for near-term consumption.
As I have indicated over the last few years, this is one of the superb newer producers in Chateauneuf du Pape. Their cellars are in the village of Courthezon, which is located adjacent to the very northeast sector of the appellation. Their 2007s are spectacular wines. This superb Chateauneuf du Pape producer also fashions tasty Cotes du Rhones and Cotes du Rhone-Villages meant to be consumed during their first few years of life.
