L'Abbe Dine Chateauneuf du Pape La Reserve des Cieux 2016 (Magnum 1.5L)
Want something completely under the radar that will blow your socks off? Well, look no further. L'Abbe Dine is a micro-producer who teamed with none other than super consultant Philippe Cambie (Clos Saint Jean, Château de Vaudieu, Domaine Les Cailloux and Clos du Mont Olivet to name a few) to create this stunning wine. This is 100% Grenache sourced from the extremely stony lieu-dit of la Janasse (yes, that Janasse) and it is 100% sexy. This is the first wine that Nathalie has produced that uses some barrique, upon the advice of Cambie, which gives this wine generosity and a texture that speaks to a wine of a much higher price point! Out of magnum this one will thrill for a decade at the very least and will probably be drinking great well into the 2040!
