Domaine de la Janasse's 2010 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes exhibits a deep garnet color. The nose is powerful and complex, with aromas of blackberries, black cherries, garrigue, and hints of licorice and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and concentrated, with velvety tannins and layers of dark fruit, herbs, and subtle minerality. The finish is exceptionally long and balanced, with remarkable depth and finesse.
