Clos Du Calvaire, Chateauneuf du Pape 2009 Bordeaux Blanc The just-released 1994 Merlot is92 Jeb Dunnuck A tank aged blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Cinsault, the 2009 Vignobles Mayard Chteauneuf du Pape Clos du Calvaire is a ripe, lavishly textured beauty that possesses loads of plum, crme de cassis, melted licorice, roasted herb, and charcoal aromas and flavors.
