2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge Arioso (Le Clos), Mounir Saouma
Saturated, bright-rimmed red. A highly fragrant, complex nose evokes ripe red and dark berries, pungent flowers and exotic spices and a smoky mineral overtone adds vivacious lift. Juicy and concentrated in the mouth, offering alluringly sweet cherry preserve, Chambord, spicecake and floral pastille flavors that show superb detail and back-end thrust. Closes gently chewy, sweet and wonderfully long, with building tannins adding shape and final grip.

Vinous
Lurid ruby. An explosively perfumed bouquet evokes ripe dark berries, candied lavender, potpourri and Asian spices. Deeply concentrated black raspberry liqueur, star anise, floral pastille and bitter rhubarb flavors stain the palate and turn sweeter with air. Shows outstanding power and energy on the gently tannic finish, which hangs on with superb, floral-dominated tenacity.
