A candidate for the wine of the vintage, the 2014 Châteauneuf du Pape La Reserve is the classic 60/40 split of Grenache and Mourvèdre raised in demi-muids. It's a more streamlined, elegant version of the cuvée, yet like the Les Quartz, has real density, as well as perfectly ripe tannin, tons of strawberry, vanilla and creamy licorice aroma and flavors, as well as a great finish. It too is ideal for drinking anytime over the coming 7-8 years, and given the high Mourvèdre content, I'm sure it will keep longer.
