January 30, 2022 - A little over the hill, slight brown edge, medium body, dried red fruit, white pepper, soft elegant tannins. Still nice acidity

March 19, 2015 - Dense but not fully open nose of spicy red fruit, meaty notes and mineral. Robust but not overpowering palate with notes of cracked pepper, white pepper, garrigue, dried berry fruit, cooked plum, ripe raspberries, dry stone and some dark floral notes. The finish is a battle between the acidity and the high alcohol (15.5) from the big Grenache styled vintage.

February 24, 2015 - White pepper spices and slightly cooked fruit on the nose. Secondary aromas of mocha and chocolate. Juicy palate with a warming, generous amount of alcohol and a ripe texture. Flavours of blueberry, blackcurrant and spices which lasts on throughout the finish.
