March 9, 2014 - Nice enough Grenache-wine, but lacks spine; it's sweet, quite fat, not old or oxidized in any way, just a wee bit boring and one-dimensional, when tasted vis-a-vis the Gigondas from Bouissierre. Not asking: where's the beef, because the beef is certainly there and the wine is very drinkable indeed, it's the rest, that's missing. At H&A - Roskilde.

On the palate it’s lighter. It’s still alive, but it’s best side is definitely the nose. -

May 25, 2013 - Really lovely Grenache fruit with great acidity which promises it can keep a lot longer. No secondary characteristics yet. But the lovely sweet fruit comes through so strongly so it's a lovely wine to drink now
