February 12, 2024 - Cellar stored. Dark purple color. Fading black and purple fruit. Blackberry, elderberry. Oak. Past prime but still good. Drink now.

December 17, 2023 - I had zero expectations for this wine. Purchased in 2012 for $16.49, drank one early and did not write a note on it. Held a second bottle at 55F from then until now and decided to take it to a huge French wine guy's house to have with lamb steak. Nice funk and a bit muted on opening but this really opened up into a classic southern Rhone wine with garrigue and black/red fruit flavors that were restrained with age and plenty of secondaries with some tertiaries coming out. I was blown away with how good this was after about 45 minutes opened. Very cool bottle of wine. If you have any, drink now plus probably 2-3 years - if it was well stored.

May 30, 2022 - Fully mature; should be nice for at least 5 more years. Balanced, rich, lovely.

November 21, 2021 - Cotes du Rhone (Frank's place in Matraville): From Coravin.
Biscuit, red berry, sweet spice, black and green peppercorns, ripe fruit; a little blackberry, a little alcohol warmth, leather, slight earth. Juicy, savoury, lather, pepper, a little brett, drying raw silk tannins, long, blackberry fruit proves a little muted though. Hmm.
