Good inexpensive young CdP- I picked this up for about $30 at Highland Wine & Crystal in Atlanta a while back.

2010 Château Fortia Châteauneuf-du-Pape - France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape (9/19/2014)
Medium ruby color. Nice intensity to the aromas- blackberry, fig jam, black cherry with notes of iron, violet, clove and tea leaf. Dry with intense flavors and concentration on the palate, with good balance and strong acid and tannin. Shows flavor notes of juicy blackberry, black cherry and plum with notes of melted iron, dried lavender, black tea, wet forest and clove spice (consistent with the nose). Round texture with full grainy tannins. Full length on the finish. Drinking very well with a quick decant or a pour decanter. Excellent. (92 pts.)
