Clos du Mont Olivet, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, 2010
Traditional, old-school Chateauneuf-du-Pape from a family that has been making it for nearly a century. Clos du Mont-Olivet was founded by Seraphin Sabon in 1932 and is still run by his descendants, the fourth generation now, across a 50-hectare estate. They draw on all of the appellation's permitted grape varieties for a classic, Grenache-led blend made in a long-lived, unflashy style. The 2010 vintage is one of the modern greats in the southern Rhone, structured and concentrated with the balance to age gracefully. Fifteen years on it is hitting its stride; decant before serving.
