R. Parker - Wine Advocate - 94-96/100
"Picked two weeks earlier than the historical norm, the 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Barbe Rac is 100% old-vine Grenache from a warm subregion of the appellation. It boasts huge black cherry fruit and touches of garrigue, carried by a full-bodied, rich palate. This is tannic but ripe, with a long, long, long licorice-tinged finish. Yes, I wrote long three times in my original notes!"
The advice of 12bouteilles: This great wine can be kept from 30 to 60 years, or even 50 to 75 years. Serve at a temperature of 17 ° C with a roasted pigeon with porcini mushrooms.
