Description

This is a cuvée created by the Usseglio brothers as a homage to their grandfather. Centred around Grenache from vines averaging 80-years old, planted on a mixture of three differing terroirs - galets roulets, clay and sand, aged in a mixture of used demi-muid barrels and smaller barriques. Aromatic ripe, sensual and sweet, this is bursting with lacy flavours of griotte cherry, clove spice, herb, fruit liqueur and alpinestrawberry, an absolutely charming and highly seductive Châteauneuf.

94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de Mon Aieul, which spends 90% of its time in tank and 10% in old barrels, has turned out even better in bottle than it performed from cask. Basically 100% Grenache in 2004, this is clearly better than the 1999, which I own and drink frequently. It exhibits a deep ruby purple color and a wonderful sweet nose of black cherry, raspberry, licorice, spice box, and roasted herbs. Voluminous for a 2004, with full body, beautiful texture, a long, heady finish, and loads of fruit, glycerin, and decent acidity, this wine should drink beautifully for 12-15+ years. There was no 2004 Reserve des Deux Freres as all of that wine was put into the Mon Aieul. (2/ 2007)

94 points Wine Spectator

Packed with pure, ripe fruit--raspberry, boysenberry and fig--along with cocoa, tar and violet notes. Long, rich, dark finish shows lots of exotic spice, date and dried fruit notes. Tight on the finish, so cellar for a while. Best from 2007 through 2024. (11/ 2006)

93 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Explosively floral aromas of raspberry and wild strawberry complicated by mineral and lavender notes. Concentrated and deep, with sweet but nicely focused red fruit and bitter cherry flavors accompanied by exotic smoked meat and black walnut tones. An impressively rich, powerful wine, offering serious palate coverage and a long, very sweet finish. (2/2007)
