Boislauzon, Chateauneuf Du Pape Quet Vintage:2009 Here there is no reductive

Here there is no reductive funk and in fact the nose is really quite pretty with its airy mix of red and dark pinot fruit that display top notes of spice and herbal tea

(from Chassagne fruit)

This is pretty oaky at present though the necessary density appears to be present such that the wood treatment will eventually be successfully integrated

even the older ones

Boislauzon, Chateauneuf Du Pape Quet Vintage:2009 Here there is no reductiveBased on 80% Grenache and 20% Mourvdre, the 2009 Chteauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Du Quet is showing beautifully, with a powerful, rich, yet seamless style. Ripe black cherries, black licorice, roasted garrigue, meat, tapenade, and Provenal notes all emerge from the glass. It's full bodied, has a deep, layered mid palate, sweet tannins, and a great finish. I'd say it's drinking at point today, yet it has the density, depth, and balance to evolve gracefully
