March 24, 2018 - Winebar [4 Whts, 8 Reds, + 6 Shared Bottles] from 3/23/18 (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): 80% Grenache, 17% Syrah, & 3% Mourvèdre [per Jancis Robinson]
N: I *quite* AGREE with a fellow taste: minestrone soup, with some vanilla as well?
P: Med body; Nice, ALMOST swtish frt met by some puckerish astringency which evolves into a LONG, ult ALMOST swtish finish with notes of bitterness & very, VERY fine tannins with that initial swtness. For now with food, but could stand another yr easily, then handily making its 10th. My VG+, though likely more IF one takes into account this vendor's (close-out?) $24.95 is *$20* < than the next lowest of wine-searcher's LIMITED offerings! 90 pts WA, 16.5/20 Jancis Robinson, 15/20 La Revue du Vin de France, and 15/20 Gault & Millau. -
La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine: 90 points
August 9, 2017 - Dark bramble fruits and Provençal herbs characterize the nose and palate of this deep ruby, medium-bodied wine. Supported by fresh acidity, medium sweet tannins and nicely integrated alcohol (listed as 13.5%), it adds accents of black pepper and citrus. Dense in the middle and finishing with good length, this is a rustic, "traditional" Châteauneuf that will have many fans. I happen to be one of them. Drink now-2025.
