September 26, 2020 - Finally coming around, this is still on lively raspberry and cherry fruit combined with pepper and Asian spices. Rayas-lookalike with notes of kirsch, sweet, ripe fruit and white pepper, still with finesse and elegance. This has years to go, really. Enjoyed over 2 days with no deterioration. La Contadine.

September 10, 2020 - Previous notes apply. Cherry fruit, garrigue, Provençal herbs. Balsam, sandalwood. Delicious!

September 24, 2018 - Tasted over two days and clearly best on day 2; a core of alcohol, yes, but is both clear cut and creamy Grenache.
