December 28, 2022 - Rough edges resolved since last tasting 1.5 years ago. Drinking nicely. Certainly mature. Bricking on the edges; raspberry color in the middle. No nose. Blackberry and fig on the palate. Drink up.

January 24, 2022 - Decent, opened up after going through the venturi, deeper leather and oak notes, not much in the way of fruit, a little harsh at first, but mellowed a bit after sitting a few minutes. I would drink what you have now...

November 8, 2020 - Lovely, elegant mature Gigondas. I’m delighted we have another 10 bottles to drink. Probably won’t wait to drink the rest. .

October 3, 2020 - Brawny and a little awkward out of the bottle but opened nicely after a short wait (15 minutes). Packs a real punch even for Pallieres....it has the trademark mineral streak and grippy tannins. As a lover of Gigondas and Pallieres I will say to my taste this isn’t the most finely tuned vintage...wild and vivacious a better description.
