DOMAINE DE BEAURENARD CHATEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE BOISRENARD
2005: 96 POINTS "This lush beauty really tames the vintage’s rugged structure, with gorgeous boysenberry and raspberry confiture layered with mocha, Turkish coffee, licorice and fig paste notes. The long finish has great grip and the exotic spice notes linger beautifully. Best from 2010 through 2030." - James Molesworth DOMAINE DE BEAURENARD CHATEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE 2005: 92 POINTS "This has lots of juicy grip, with a strong, briary undertow supporting red and black licorice, hot stone, currant paste, tobacco and chestnut notes. The long, muscular finish is typical of the vintage. Best from 2010 through 2025." - James Molesworth |

Instead, they have their own distinct, exotic flavor profiles—brioche, blanched almond, star fruit, anise, fennel, mineral, honeysuckle, peach and more. They can range from rich and oily in texture to lean and minerally." European Wine Group has three: |
