Oak wine barrels stacked upon galet rocks in a...Oak wine barrels stacked upon galet rocks in amidst a vineyard in the Southern Rhone Valley wine region of Chateauneuf-du-Pape in France. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)More 2010 rhone wines..,mostly Chateauneuf du Pape

Dom. Tour Sant Michel 2010 two sisters cuvee dark color in the glass...as most all the wines have.. lots of extraction. cranberry and tart fruit on the palate.. a little offputting

Lafond Roc Epine CDP 2010... maybe one of the best of the 10 tried.. lush forward fruit.. a pretty tar and smoky finish

Saint Michel Cuvee of the Vatican.. 2010 more of an alcohol front.. gamey and not as complex

Feminessance from Michel CDP  .. easy and light.. could say feminine in style

Font de Michelle CDP 2010 nice grip from fruit tannin. soft finish

Chateau Sixtine Cuvee de Vatican 2010.. purple on the glass.. porty almost on the nose, lush fruit and also hot from the alcohol

Cote de l"ange CDP 2010  concentrated, soft and juicy

Cote Rotie Ogier d'amouis pepper notes on the nose, juicy in body but it didnt turn the corner for me like I was hoping.. looking for more gamey and bacon and smoke
