TASTING NOTE: The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape la Crau de Ma Mere is another top-flight effort in this stunning vintage for Mayard. If I didn't detect a touch of warmth on the finish of this wine, I would've rated it higher because it boasts stunning aromas of blueberries and licorice, ample concentration, supple tannins and a long, spicy finish. Drink 2017-2025. Score - 93 (Joe Czerwinski, robertparker.com, Oct. 31, 2017) |
