There are differences in texture between the two years

The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Chaupin is all Grenache

with a level of translucent energy that is alluring

The palate is still unyielding

floral notes and cassis nuances

Henri Gouges, Nuits Saint Georges Clos Porrets Vintage:2015 There are differences in texture(a 3. 5 ha monopole with 30+ year old vines). A notably ripe nose of cassis, black cherry, humus and earth possesses fine complexity. There is outstanding volume and mid palate concentration to the powerful and mouth coating middle weight flavors that exhibit a subtle minerality on the sappy, dusty, energetic and beautifully persistent finish. This is a classic Nuits that is built to age and will need it. 93 2030+
