2007 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina
($425) Glass-staining ruby. The nose offers a drop-dead sexy array of berry,
floral and mineral scents, along with nuances of spicecake and black olive.
Impressively deep and sweet but also energetic, displaying dense red and dark
fruit liqueur flavors and sexy floral pastille and baking spice qualities. The mineral
quality comes on strong with air and lends lift and urgency to the very long,
spicy finish. This is slightly more elegant than the Comte des Fous but just as
potent.
2007 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous
($400) Inky ruby. Pungent, strongly perfumed bouquet of ripe dark berries,
cherry compote, olive and floral oils. Smooth, palate-coating mulberry and kirsch
flavors are complicated by candied lavender and rose qualities that gain power
with aeration. The floral element dominates the very long, spicy, strikingly pure
finish. This is extremely sexy now but clearly destined for a long life.
2004 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina
2008 (3)
($93) Inky violet. Heady bouquet of raspberry, black cherry, lavender and fruity
black pepper. Impressively concentrated and deep, with powerful, liqueur-like
blackberry and cassis flavors enrobing big but supple tannins. Finishes with
building sweetness and serious weight, but also with superb focus, leaving behind
an impression of dark fruit essences. The yield here was reportedly 20 hectoliters
per hectare. (Weygandt-Metzler Importing, Unionville, PA)

($150) Glass-staining ruby. Explosively perfumed bouquet of fresh red and dark
berries, potpourri, incense and licorice. Completely saturates the palate with
sweet raspberry and boysenberry flavors, picking up anise and lavender pastille
qualities with air. For a wine with this kind of palate impact there's remarkable
finesse and clarity. Red berry and floral notes echo endlessly on the long, sappy
finish.
2007 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes
($60) Deep ruby. Black raspberry, smoky herbs and Asian spices on the nose.
Suave and fine-grained, with deep flavors of raspberry, blackberry and tangy
minerals. A step up in extract and power from the regular bottling, with more
depth and intensity to its red and dark fruit flavors. Gains a floral quality on the
back half, finishing sweet, broad and minerally, with dusty tannins and an echo of
candied flowers.

2006 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous
($120; 60% grenache, 20% syrah, 10% cinsault and 10% vaccarese) Inky ruby.
Exotically perfumed bouquet of cherry-cola, licorice, incense and cracked pepper.
Sappy and round, with deep dark berry and sassafras flavors, gently chewy
tannins and a late kick of black pepper. Finishes with mounting sweetness,
exceptional clarity and lingering spiciness.
2003 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina
Deep ruby. Very rich nose displays powerful cherry, cassis and blueberry aromas.
Really showing the fruit today, with deep dark fruit compote flavors and a
suggestion of spicecake. The finish really hangs in there. This is still a baby but
possesses serious depth and potential. I called this 92(+?) on release.
2009 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina
Inky-purple. Sexy aromas of dark berry compote, Indian spices, cocoa powder
and flowers. Then creamy and dense in the mouth, with powerful red and dark
berry liqueur flavors accented by notes of spice cake and tangy minerals. Boasts
lovely sweetness and clarity, finishing with outstanding clarity and length.
2004 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous
($77) Ruby-red. Expressive, enticingly floral aromas of raspberry, lavender and
rose. Very fresh and elegantly styled, with sweet red berry flavors framed by
silky tannins and accented by minerals on the long finish. This offers excellent
focus and energy.
2005 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes
($46) Bright ruby. Spicy red berry and kirsch aromas are deepened by black olive
and pungent flowers. Creamy raspberry and blackberry flavors are gently
supported by supple minerality, picking up a spicy quality on the finish. This
seems livelier than the non-V.V. bottling.

2008 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous
Bright red. A complex bouquet offers black raspberry, cherry and a strong note of
licorice. Coats the palate with dark berry and bitter cherry flavors and picks up an
exotic floral quality with air. A spicy quality adds vivacity to a long, penetrating
finish. This looks like it will age.

2007 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape
Dark ruby. Ripe dark berries and cherry on the nose, with complicating notes of
anise and musky herbs. Fleshy, gently sweet black raspberry and cherry flavors
are firmed by fine-grained tannins that fade into the fruit on the back end. Very
smooth and seamless in texture, with very good closing sweetness and spicy
persistence.
2006 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes
($150; these grenache vines are in La Crau) Seductive aromas of red berries,
cherry and blackcurrant. A smoky note comes up on the palate, adding
complexity to the sweet raspberry and cherry flavors. Finishes with impressive
tangy clarity and persistence. There are around 13,000 bottles of this, compared
to up to 100,000 of the normal Chateauneuf.
2009 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape
Ruby-red. Wild, highly perfumed aromas of black and blue fruits, anise and
spices. Dense and creamy but fresh, bolstered by very good energy to the
blackberry, mulberry and cracked pepper flavors. Finishes with fine-grained
tannins and excellent spicy persistence
2006 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape
Inky ruby. Powerful dark berry aromas, with gentle garrigue and anise building
with air. Fresh, racy and focused, offering sweet raspberry and blackberry flavors
and suave, harmonious tannins. Turns spicier on the finish, with echoing red
berry flavors. This cuvee (without a "Vieilles Vignes" designation) is always
destined for the European market. If you find it in the U.S.-and you are likely to
since there are over 4,000 cases-it's here via the gray market.

2007 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc
($50; a blend of grenache blanc, clairette and roussanne) Bright gold. Fresh citrus
and apple scents, complicated by hints of smoky minerals, almond and white
flowers. Racy and finely focused, with midweight lemon and green apple flavors
and a late kick of lime zest. The minerality returns on the finish and lingers
impressively. For a wine from the south this is delicate and precise. (WeygandtMetzler Importing, Unionville, PA)
2008 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes
Full red. Muskier and more perfumed than the previous wine, displaying potent
red and dark berry scents and a hint of anise. Spicy and broad, with sweet black
raspberry and cherry flavors and a firm mineral spine. Finishes with very good
clarity and persistent spice and floral nuances.
2006 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc
Pale gold. Very spicy aromas of energetic citrus fruits and deeper peach. Silky in
texture and very fresh, offering tangerine, white peach and licorice flavors, and
finishing with gentle minerality. Impressive for its fine-grained, silky texture and
bright minerality. (Weygandt-Metzler, Unionville, PA)
2008 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape
Deep red. Red and dark berries on the nose and in the mouth, with notes of
smoke and herbs adding complexity. Sappy and spicy, augmented by good
finishing clarity and excellent persistence, leaving floral and spice notes behind.
This is already drinking well.
2005 Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf du Pape
(European bottling) Deep ruby. Gamey cherry and blackcurrant scents are
complicated by smoked meat, licorice and dark chocolate. Chewy and sweet, with
deep blackcurrant and bitter cherry flavors, and a potent olive quality on the
back. Gains sweetness with air but this is pretty brooding today.
