VINTAGES Recommendations for RED

REDS
2007 CLOS du MONT OLIVET Chateauneuf du Pape $40
(Yes, Parker has two “brilliants” in his opening sentence reviewing this wine.) “The brilliant 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Tradition (made from 80% Grenache and the rest Syrah, Mourvedre) is brilliant. ….The wine is expansive, savory, very fleshy, and totally disarming in its explosive aromatics and lush, opulent flavor…. 92 pts.”-WA  This Chateauneuf gets bonus points for vibrancy… HIGHLY Recommended.
 
2007 DOM. ROBERT CHEVILLON Bourgogne Rouge $30 “A pretty, even elegant red pinot fruit nose trimmed in a bit of warm earth leads to supple, round and attractively complex flavors that are quite forward yet impeccably well balanced. Outstanding Top Value!”-Burghound  An elegant choice, from this traditional estate in Nuits-St. Georges. HIGHLY Recommended.
