Lastly, the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix is the most fine, elegant and silky, with beautiful notes of dried flowers, black raspberry, dried earth and spice. Medium to full-bodied, pure and layered, it’s not a blockbuster, but it shines for its balance, length and texture. Coming from the sandy, clay soils located just behind the estate, this cuvee is always the most fine, elegant and lightly textured of the special cuvees, yet it ages gracefully on its balance. Drink it anytime over the coming 10-15 years.
The opaque ruby/purple-colored 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix exhibits classic notes of raspberries, plums and cherries. Heady with a more streamlined style than the other 2010s, it is elegant, pure and precise, veering toward a more Pinot Noir-like style than the other Chateauneuf du Pape cuvees.
Dark blackish crimson. Something a little raw and green on the nose here. Sweet start and then blackberries. Good and lively and very concentrated with fine tannins underneath. This should disappoint no one. Drink between 2018-2030.
Again, the most elegant and feminine wine of the group is the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix. Notes of spring flowers intermixed with an almost raspberry and blueberry note are followed by foresty undertones. It is medium-bodied, dark ruby/purple, attractive and pure.
