Blonds have more fun

Maurel “Les Galets Blonds” 1995 Châteauneuf-du-Pape (Rhône) – Despite being fairly tight, there’s enough excellent, raw, herbed-meat quality here for enjoyment, and the gravel underbelly is enjoyable. Still, I think things will improve over the next few years, though I don’t know if the long haul remains in this wine’s future. (1/08)
