March 19, 2024 - Medium dark ruby. Powerful aroma of dark cherries, black plums, chocolate, tea, earth, forest floor, roses, a hint of vanillin oak. Dark and red fruit on the palate, pomegranate and raspberry, medium plus acids, medium fine grained tannins, medium alcohol, very long finish. Well constructed, complex, balanced.

March 3, 2024 - We bought this wine in 2022 at a visit to Domaine Tempier so it was hard to open - wanted to hold onto the treasure lol!
Amazing wine - decanted for several hours but stole a sip immediately upon opening as well.
Incredible acidity, minerality and silky tannins.
So many layered notes over the course of the evening.1 person found this helpful Comment -

December 10, 2023 - Phenomenal with Prime Rib Roast. 3hr decant and wine really benefitted from this. beautiful dark fruit, plum and mineral finish. 2017 was a very good year, last bottle sadly, on to the 2018s!!

The wine is clear and dark purple in colour
There is very small amount of sediment in the bottle.
On the nose: Fresh red fruit, raspberry, tart cherry, candied apple, fruit forward, slight alcohol - hot
On the palate: Raspberry, cherry, caramelised sugar, later, some pencil shavings, smoke
The body is medium, full.
The wine has a crisp texture.

Conclusion
Just about in its drinking window, lovely wine, not overly sweet, restrained power and a great expression of Mouvedre.1 person found this helpful Comment
