98-100 points Robert Parker: " I'll go out on a relatively safe limb and state that I believe the 2007 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the greatest Clos des Papes I have ever tasted...The 2007 reveals all the characteristics that make Clos des Papes so special, including extraordinary elegance, remarkable complexity in the black raspberry, kirsch, truffle, meaty, Provencal herbaceousness, full-bodied palate, voluptuous, silky tannins, and mind-boggling richness and length. Nothing is out of place, and there are no hard edges in this beautiful Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The vintage's cool growing conditions have given the wine a freshness to go along with its substantial size and power. This monumental Châteauneuf is a tour de force in winemaking. It should be relatively accessible in 3-4 years, and evolve along the lines of the 1978, only the 2007 has more to it, so expect it to last at least 30 years. Not to be missed!"
