Robert Parker (96)

The 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Quartz’s Burgundian-like perfume of liquid rocks intermixed with blueberries, blackberries, licorice, and cherries is accompanied by exquisite concentration, extraordinary purity, and a tremendously perfumed style with minerality as well as underlying structure. This is a fabulously elegant yet full-bodied, concentrated offering that could be called the Musigny of Chateauneuf du Pape. The 2001 only hints at its ultimate potential, but it is soft enough to be drunk now. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2016.

Still impressively youthful, this features a creamy texture and loads of dark mulled fig, steeped black currant, loganberry and blackberry fruit flavors, all layered with enticing Lapsang souchong tea, hoisin sauce and maduro tobacco notes. The long finish has mouthwatering definition
