The 2010 vintage was phenomenal for Rhône Valley reds, considered one of the greats. Domaine de la Vieille Julienne's Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réserve 2010 is a legendary wine, with vines planted in 1904 and yields under 20 hectoliters per hectare. It's primarily Grenache, with a balance of Syrah, Mourvedre, and Cinsault, often a field blend. Robert Parker rated it 99 points, calling it a "modern day legend in traditional Chateauneuf du Pape."
The 2010 Domaine de la Vieille Julienne Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réserve is a 【mind-blowing, profound wine, delivering a vivid, complex, and detailed bouquet of sappy flowers, violets, licorice, black currants, and smoked earth-like qualities】. Deep in color, the nose blasts off with lavender, cherry, spice, pepper, and earthy scents. On the palate, it is deep, rich, concentrated, and packed with sweet, silky black raspberries, cherry, and kirsch, remaining on the palate and expanding in flavor. It's full-bodied, perfectly put together, with incredible richness and depth, yet stays light, ethereal, and weightless. This wine is built to evolve beautifully for over two decades.

This powerful and generous red wine pairs perfectly with roasted or grilled meats, especially lamb, beef, and game. Stewed dishes like daube provençale or boeuf bourguignon, and game meats such as venison or wild boar, would also be excellent.
