2016 Châteauneuf du Pape Les Terrasses Rouge Olivier Hillaire delicately mordant finishParker Czerwinski 95 points: The 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Terrasses is a fine example of old vine Grenache from a parcel of vines near La Nerthe. Rose petals and black tea accent pristine cherry and raspberry fruit in this full bodied but silky lacy, delicate wine. Long, briny and refreshing on the finish, it's deceptively drinkable but undoubtedly packs a wallop.
