Jeb Dunnuck 98 pts! A borderline perfect wine, the 1998 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de mon Aïeul shows plenty of southern Rhône typicity but is jacked up with amazingly concentrated fruit and serious structure. The nose shows beautiful garrigue, raspberry, earth, spice and licorice notes and with air, this picked up a darker, richer profile. The palate is full bodied, perfectly balanced and possesses huge fruit and a blockbuster, tannic finish. (Drink between 2005 - 2023)
