CLOS SAINT JEAN CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE DEUS-EX MACHINA 2004 (2)

Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
u. 2 x 2 cm. 2 x scraped labels.

The 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Deus ex Machina is drinking beautifully today and defies the vintage stereotype. Giving up awesome dark fruits, olive tapenade, licorice, earth, pepper and spice, it has a un-2004-like richness and texture, as well as beautiful underlying structure and balance. April 2014 WA 96

CLOS SAINT JEAN CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE DEUS-EX MACHINA 2005 (2)

Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
u. 2 x 2 cm. 2 x scraped labels.

Cassis, crushed rocks, graphite, beef blood and iron-like aromas and flavors are all present here, and it offers incredible depth and richness on the palate, with gorgeous purity, masses of tannin and a rock-star finish. A wine that could make you run out of adjectives, it too is another wine that goes flying off the scale. August 2014 WA 100
