The 2010 Albin Jacumin Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Begude Des Papes brings plenty of black fruits, forest floor and spice. Not the most complex wine of the vintage but the velvety texture makes it enjoyable and inviting to drink. It picks up the pace on the sleek finish where a spicy note sneaks up on you and lingers quite nice. (Best 2012-2019) - September, 2012 (JD)
