90 Pts RP r <font color=red><strong>90+pts Parker </strong></font><br><font color=blue><strong>Chateau Paradis Is Wine Paradise<br>Blockbuster Red Made By Michel Tardieu</strong></font><br><br>The last vintage of this wine flew out of here. I went to a dinner tasting focusing on Bordeaux and the wines were awesome. There was one wine however that was not from Bordeaux and I could not wait to try it. The wine was the 2009 Chateau Paradis. We had managed to get some of the wine in the 2007 vintage and our customers have been begging us for more ever since. I tasted the wine the wine before all the fifty to one hundred dollar Bordeaux’s. Before it was delicious, rich and concentrated with copious amounts of fruit, a killer bouquet of new wood, black fruits and provencal herbs but what realy showed me the pedigree of the wine is when I re-tasted the wines after the Bordeaux and it shone through superbly showing it’s class, intensity and purity. Many wines after the big boys, taste flat or water-like. Not Paradis, it was even better. I was blown away! The 2009 is even better than the 2007. 2009 is one of the great vintages throughout France and this wine show’s it. Chateau Paradis is found in a region called Coteaux d’Aix which is just below the Southerm Rhone entering in Provence. Not rated yet but a perennial 90+ pts by Parkers WA. Age of vines are 40 years plus. The compostion of Chateau Paradis’ soil is very similar to the finest in Chateauneuf du Pape, chalky slopes, clay sands and full of pebbles. This means the roots have to dig deep to get to water and all the nutrients in the soil adds to the complexity of the wine. What makes this wine different to Chateauneuf du Pape is that 50% of the blend is Cabernet Sauvignon. This makes the wine bigger and fuller and adds more currant, black fruits and dark chocolate to the wine. The balance is Grenache and Syrah adding opulence and accessibility.<br>The blend is very similar to the great Priorat’s from Spain that we all love to drink. Same kind of blend as a Mogador and as delicious.<br>Another huge reason the wine is so good is that is made from one of the winemaker masters from France, Michel Tardieu who is famous for his Tardieu Laurent Wines from the Rhone. The style of Paradis is the same, big and rich, new oak and voluptuous. The result is a big rich red, aged in small French oak that has that huge appeal. I have recommended that all the wine advisors offer this to all customers who are purchasing in this price range and I am recommending the same to you. If you are looking for an insane red in the mid-twenty’s a bottle, you must get this wine!<br><br>The 2009 Coteaux d’Aix Paradis is composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Grenache,and its dense purple hue is accompanied by a sumptuous bouquet of sweet new oak, blackberry liqueur, espresso, and a hint of spice box. This wine possesses amazing concentration, full-bodied richness, and a wallop of toasty, smoky wood. It should age effortlessly for 10-15 years.
