December 19, 2020 - Still going strong, this is now on darker fruit, is more nuanced but still shows great purity and balance. Authentic wine, by no means over the hill, but maybe more charming at age 10-12.

August 26, 2018 - Celebrating Judi's Birthday (Sun Wah): Courtesy of Kevin, this punched well above its weight tonight. Lovely spice and brambly red fruit aromas. The palate shows nice depth, with dark fruit, sage, pepper and red currant flavors. Finishes with good length.

October 27, 2017 - At 11 years old this is still a young wine that shows the restrained, light red-fruited side of Grenache with notes of raspberry and cherry fruit and subtle tannins that are yet to be fully resolved. Great purity of fruit as usual, marks of earth. Pure Grenache in a glass.

April 6, 2016 - Nez très plaisant de fraises, d'anis et d'herbes séchées (thym). La bouche est encore vigoureuse, charnue, épicée, un peu rustique. Un bon vin franc et plein. Meilleur le lendemain. 88 pts

April 15, 2015 - PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs
-mostly opaque vibrant dark red with slight bricking
-moderately expressive perfumed melange of faint but sweet black fruit kirsch and mature elements
-med acidity, med weight with impressive depth on somewhat simple mid-palate comprised of some black fruit and bitter soil tones, rather abundant chalky tannins
-mature CdR drinking well now, don't anticipate positive development despite some residual tannic structure

7/17/2009 (link)(LE POUTET Charvin CdR) Charvin #2 Dear Friends, I've been compiling my notes from the Great Producers Tasting but it's slow going to get the pertinent details down on each wine - it's become almost a mini-newsletter (reminds me of the old Recent Impressions newsletter from 5-6 years ago that I used to pen) - hopefully I will finish it this weekend. So far, lots of interesting stories and information so it should be an interesting read (not to mention dozens of tasting notes). It will also include my notes on the Mugnier Musigny vertical from a few weeks ago plus various Cote Roties (La Mouline, Belle Helene, etc). Now to the Rhone... I've been following this wine with curiosity over the past year and its finally begun to realize the potential that lurked behind closed doors. What was once a one of the more expensive Cotes du Rhone disappointments of the vintage has turned a corner with weight and richness notably absent the last time I tried it (Thanksgiving 2008). I can now recommend the wine as a full-toned example of the Southern Rhone and a verifiable value from one of Chateauneuf-du-Pape's most respected producers. Normally priced closer to $20 or more, this wine won't change your world but it will certainly satisfy your desire for old-world Grenache on a Monday night come this October or November... ONE SHIPMENT ONLY at this price with impeccable provenance: 2006 Charvin Cotes du Rhone "Le Poutet" Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Rhone6712
