The massive 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee La Parte des Anges reveals huge extraction, abundant new oak, and an intense, full style. While there is a tendency to call this modern-styled, the 70% Mourvedre component puts it in a different category than a traditional Chateauneuf du Pape. Wines such as the Perrins Beaucastel Hommage a Jacques Perrin, Manfred Krankls and Philippe Cambies Chimere, and a few other offerings dominated by Mourvedre come to mind when tasting this cuvee. This 2010 needs to be forgotten for 5-8 years and drunk over the following 25-30 years.
