  March 18, 2023 - Having recently tried the 2011 Syrah ( An exceptional 93 from us) we had to try their Grenache too. Same cellar too at the excellent Compagnie des Vins Supernaturels, Paris.
  The Grenache as pretty and welcoming as it is lacks the presence and depth on the palate and is very soft, light and has its best days behind it. That been said ever the old world style of wine as is their Syrah. Pretty 90 and drink sooner than later.

  September 23, 2020 - Nice bright savory red fruit that paired nicely with butternut squash ravioli with cripsy sage in brown butter. Yummy stuff is the technical term I think. LOL

  January 25, 2020 - Red and black fruit, spice, some herbs, tar and light tannins. Much improved from 2 years ago. Now entering the drinking window.
  
  We had with Persian food from Taste of Persia (NYC - about to close) and it was a great pairing.

  July 28, 2019 - Excellent showing... Very youthful, surprisingly big and ripe for the ABV. Rich red and black fruits, taut structure, generous tannins. Definte food oriented wine with many more years of development ahead of it.
