What can I say? I just love the wines coming out of Châteauneuf-du-Pape! The 2007 vintage will last for a very long time in the bottle, but they are very approachable now. I invited my friend Geoff over for dinner to get his opinion on this incredible wine. It was decanted for an hour. We ate steak au buerre rouge (A.Bourdain’s recipe) cooked in a cast iron pan. I also cooked porcini mushroom risotto. The combination released some very interesting flavors. Lots of dark berry flavor, black pepper spice, some licorice on the finish, and hints of herbs.
