10/4/2015 - walkerjfw wrote: 94 pointsFirst bottle was corked (good that I checked, more frequent with older Rhones), Had this in mind so I went back to the cellar for redemption... decanted for 30 minutes drank over 2 hours. Served this with my pork and butternut squash stew. Great pairing for Fall/Harvest flavors. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (3) |

10/4/2015 - ey1294 wrote: 92 points- Garnet color with slow forming legs and aromas of tea, licorice anise, fig and tobacco. It's balanced and has flavours of blackberry, fig, raisin and black pepper with a full body. Leathery texture with a long finish - Decanted 4 hours. Graphite, pencil shaving nose. Drinking well now, should have several years left. |

10/2/2015 - Roentgen Ray Likes this wine: 93 pointsI used to not like Grenache, and I'm being sucked into it. I love the dusty minerals, raspberry, and floral highlights. I'm pacing myself to not open the next two. |

9/26/2015 - bhouk wrote: NRThis needs time, either in the cellar or the decanter. Opened, decanted and had a glass last night. It was clear by the texture and structure that the wine was very high quality, but it was not giving much pleasure. Rinsed the bottle and poured the remainder back in. Much better tonight: raspberry, kirsch and soy sauce, with creosote in the finish. What sets it apart, again, is the texture and structure. I only have a couple more bottles and will exercise patience. I think another five years from now and this wine will sing. |

9/18/2015 - Pfleonard Likes this wine: 91 pointsThis one has hung in there. Still big, fruity, creamy, complex and a long finish. Full and round in the mouth but it slid down the throat oh so nicely. Gone before we knew it. C'est dommage. |

9/21/2015 - madflyfisher Likes this wine: NRGreat bottle. Had this together with a 1998 Pegau (the latter being my personal favourite). Great nose which did not indicate a very mature wine. Very vibrant and fruity nose. Beautiful colour. Medium bodied on the palate, with figs and leather notes. Quite long lasting on the palate. Outstanding balance. Accompanied woodpigeons very well. |

Greater wordsmiths than I have praised this wine. 96 points...... 97 points..... a reviewer in a bad mood might give it 94. What is the difference. If you can afford it and you find it, BUY THIS WINE. |

9/16/2015 - Woodbridge Brad Likes this wine: 89 pointsFully developed and time to consume. Lovely with a white bean and lamb stew. Added a splash of 2014 Languedoc rose and it was far nicer. Conclusion is that I waited too long, still it was lovely unsullied but I am looking at my 2001 to 2005's. |

8/16/2015 - vinolovers wrote: 93 pointsA nice garnet coloring when poured without any hints of bricking around the rim. A soft nose with lots of cherry aroma. Flavors included the cherry, white pepper, a hint of leather and some chocolate. The tannins have faded considerably but the wine has plenty of backbone but very smooth across the tongue. Close to being fully mature but there is no need to drink up right away. |
