Andre Brunel 2008 Chateauneuf du Pape 'Les Cailloux'

I always like this producer, well made wines that are not overstated, and remain true to their orgins. The 2008 is dark ruby in color, and lavender and kirsch aromas. The currant, cherry and plum flavors are intermingled with cedar, spice and mineral notes and a silky smooth finish. While not as weighty as some of his other vintages, it is a very enjoyable younger Chateauneuf.
