Tasting Notes and Scores
The 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina continues to drink amazingly well, with hints of mushroom and truffle giving way to reveal red-raspberry fruit, orange zest and Campari-like spice notes. Full-bodied and concentrated, slightly open-knit in feel, with a long, silky finish, it should continue to drink well for several more years. The Maurel family seems to excel in so-called difficult vintages, testament to their work in the vineyards, and this 2011 is no exception.

The most tannic style. 60% 100-year-old Grenache from red clay. 40% Mourvèdre. Very different nose from the others – still quite oak touched. Firm, savoury nose and then masses of round fruit on the palate. Chock full of spice and tannin – and quite tight on the end. Very firm! (JR)
