CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE, CHATEAU RAYAS 1978 |

Châteauneuf du Pape, Château Rayas 1978 u. 1x5cm, excellent color and clarity, slightly scuffed and bin soiled labels, 1 slightly wine stained, 1 sign of old seepage, 1 slightly nicked and wine stained vintage slipSweet, gamey nose, almost Burgundian. Smoky cocoa. Attack and 'oomph'. Wow, what a wine. Another bottle had an Incredible, spicy, liquorice and leather bouquet. So sweet and silky. Tastes of liquid venison. A wine like no other.
