'While I wasn’t able to taste the traditional cuvee, the 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Chaupin is a smoking effort that’s still drinking beautifully (I still remember tasting this wine shortly after release and it has never failed to impress)! Full-bodied, voluptuously-styled, layered and decadent, it possesses mature Chateauneuf aromas and flavors of garrigue, fruit cake, soy, licorice and spice to go with a core ripe fruit. As with the other vintages tasted here, this beauty is at full maturity, but will continue to evolve gracefully.'
(Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com)
'A beautiful bottle, archetype of the appellation, which expresses the quintessence of Grenache in its cradle of Châteauneuf du Pape. Between notes of black fruit and violets, this vintage advances in time with suppleness, with already melted tannins.'
(Domaine de la Janasse)
