Chateau Simian, Chateauneuf du Pape 2007 Napa Valley Pears and lemons91 CellarTracker Not really any bricking to speak of. A bit cloudy in the glass probably should have decanted for sediment. Bright red fruit on the nose with the typical CdP peppery nose. Ripe fruit on the palate. Resolved tannins. Good structure from the acidity. Drinking splendidly at the moment. Better with wild game bird than red meat at this point in its life. 4 18 2021
