Janasse, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions_australia His wines stand out forVivid ruby. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe, smoke accented red and dark berries, exotic spices and lavender, and a subtle mineral nuance adds vivacity. Sappy, sweet and lively on the palate, offering juicy raspberry and floral pastille flavors that are joined by hints of licorice and bitter cola on the back half. Smooth and seamless in texture, showing very good finishing clarity, rounded tannins and strong, floral driven persistence. Josh
