The 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix is a sexy, full-bodied, sweetly fruited southern Rhone that offers textbook notes of kirsch, black cherries, incense and dried flowers. It shows the upfront, perfumed style of the vintage, yet has a beautiful elegance, as well as impressive length. Drink it through 2029.
The dark ruby/purple-tinged 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix offers up aromas of sweet black raspberries infused with anise/fennel notes. Medium to full-bodied with sweet tannin, a layered attack, light to moderate tannin, and a fresh, lively finish, it should drink well for 8-12 years.
