Chateauneuf du Pape, Clos mont Olivet

Ok, so this the another wine that we schlept back from France, using trains, planes, cars, and raw manpower and packed tightly in socks and underwear to keep it safe. The nose was ok, but the color (transparent, would put a pinot to shame) was disappointing. Taste: very weak, just like the color, without much flavor or character. Few were impressed with this wine. We had much better Rhone wines in France but this was not worth the effort. A 2, or less.
