Totally opaque black dark red colour with a dark red hue. Pronounced black raspberry, liquorice and black cherry aromas sit over a back drop of meaty characters, earthy incense like notes and pepper.

Opulent chewy mouthfeel with sturdy, firm like tannins providing plenty of structure. Long spicy black raspberry, earth, black cherry, liquorice, dried meats, leather and spicy herb aftertaste.

Other Reviews….
The 2015 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Trois Source is flat out gorgeous and one of the 2015s readers should seek out. Black raspberries, black licorice, violets and loads of salty minerality all emerge from this seamless, ultra-fine beauty that has incredible purity and polish to its tannin. Full-bodied, concentrated and perfectly balanced, it's one of the most layered, interesting and enjoyable wines in the vintage.
