| | Tasted by AudunG on 10/1/2017 flawed bottle: Actually NV, but 2010 is indicated. Anyway, too much burnt rubber aromas. (1733 views) |

| | Tasted by Curton on 8/21/2014 & rated 90 points: Excellent. Driven by dark, juicy berries and soft tannins. Mums ... (3226 views) |

| | Tasted by mreinitz on 3/14/2014 & rated 86 points: I agree with others that this resembles a cotes du rhone, with dark fruit and red berry flavors along with a streak of stony minerality. I thought it was ok but didn't love it - it just didn't have that yum factor. (3508 views) |
| | Tasted by Dbrane on 12/5/2013 & rated 85 points: Resembles a Cote du Rhone and priced accordingly. Good acidity and freshness with a decent balance. Medium-bodied. Lovely dark fruited nose. Good for its level. (2816 views) |
| | Tasted by Curton on 3/29/2013 & rated 89 points: Decanted 1 hour - 17 degrees. Deep red and intense colour. Light elegant bouquet but still closed. Berries and dark fruits, stones. Very well integrated with the (still a bit rough) tannins - almost a kind of "nebbiolo/balance". After a further hours in large (Zalto Burgundy) glasses it develops further with notes of licorice. Very interesting and with a lot of character. Not to believe this is Minervois. Interesting to see this develop. Will decant for at least 2 hrs. next time - and will (1671 views) |
| | Tasted by Kaerhoeg on 1/13/2013 & rated 83 points: Nothing's wrong with this wine, but I didn't find it interesting. OK fruit, but very high acidity as well. I probably should have had this with a soild meal. (1479 views) |
| | Tasted by Kriz on 10/28/2012 & rated 89 points: This is very enjoyable! Nice ripe black fruit, good acidity which makes it a very tastfull but also drinkable wine. Well done, I like this kind of style (1659 views) |
| | Tasted by Roest on 8/17/2012: Agree with MPAN (1615 views) |
| | Tasted by Miceri on 4/11/2012 & rated 84 points: Quite dark red, purple; sweet slightly fruity but also closed nose; some fruit and flavours, but also quite neutral with a slightly tannic / sour finish; nice, but not exciting at all (1603 views) |
