 Tasted by johnnyrichardson on 12/6/2015 & rated 88 points: Still fairly primary, this has years of life left in it. I preferred the '03 which was more evolved a few years ago. (1391 views)
 Tasted by BoireBio on 4/4/2010 & rated 95 points: 17/20 V: Grenat au pourtour largement orangé O: Nez texturé, riche et complexe. Wow ! quel nez ce Bandol ! G: Encore une très belle texture en bouche. C'est riche avec des tanins super fins et une consistance en bouche qui est exceptionnelle. La force du mourvèdre s'exprime superbement ici. Notes animales : c'est raçé pas de doute ! Je délire ? mais oui ! puisque c'est un pur délice. Il fait la fête avec des pigeonneaux de Bellechasse. Ce Gros'Noré 2002 a été payé 18 euros en France à l'automne 2009 ..... notre chère SAQ nous offre le 2005 pour 36$C : tu parles d'une bonne affaire. (3039 views)
 Tasted by kopatrota on 10/1/2008 & rated 88 points: nez parfumé, belle robe grenat, vin puissant tout en restant tres agreable. ce vin peut etre conservé encore quelques années. passage en carafe conseillé. (3093 views)
 Tasted by Fatty Cat on 9/12/2008 & rated 90 points: Mid. Sep 2008: purple ink; dark and red berries; intense, pleasant grip on the palate; full body.

Could even improve! For about 7-8$/bottle an exceptional value for money. Would pay up to three times more for such an excellent wine. (555 views)
 Tasted by jimkay21 on 9/1/2006 & rated 88 points: Peppery nose, black fruit flaovrs but a bit hollow on the mid palate. Imporved an hour after decating. (3424 views)
