January 6, 2019 - Lovely. Sweet core. Velvet. Dried cherry and tobacco. Very good. In a very great place today. Perfect balance bodes well for the future. Was expecting more VA given how over the top this was in its youth. Essence of Grenache.

March 2, 2018 - Not to offend the gummy bear aficionados, but this is far from over the hill. Purchased on release and perfectly cellered, the wine is pretty textbook maturing granache with some nice barnyard, strawberry, wet basement and spicy mourvèdre notes. The syrah pulls up the acid profile and leaves you with a well rounded, approaching maturity CdP. It's not terrific, but its very pleasurable. Another bottle will hold for 5 more.
