1990 Chateau Rayas Chateauneuf-du-Pape Reserve, Rhone, France 750ml

Dark ruby/purple-colored, with an over-ripe nose of black cherry jam, kirsch liqueur, raspberries and minerals, this exceptionally full-bodied Chateauneuf du Pape boasts layers of concentration, glycerin, and alcohol (in excess of 15%). The massive alcohol is well-concealed by the wine's spectacular extract and density. Low in acidity and unbelievably sumptuous ...The quintessential Rayas, it is one of the most hedonistic and compelling wines ever made.
