Collin-Bourisset Châteauneuf-du-pape Les Millets 2006

Was pleased to see at least one Châteauneuf on the shelf, so grabbed it for our dinner. Made from a blend of 45% Shiraz, 45% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre, it opened to an array of cherries, licorice, leather, stalk and some spice. On the palate it was light to medium bodied, with slightly sharp fruits over some soft and slightly green tannins. Finish was decent but overall found this a little disappointing, especially compared to the last Châteauneuf I had. I am also beginning to realise that Bourisset wines are not of any great quality.
50+4+12+17+7 = 90/100
