  August 18, 2013 - Similar to the St. Joseph from the same negociant house we had at dinner; lovely nose, with some funk, good body but light finish.

  May 22, 2013 - Refined, with some complexity and personality.
  Day 3-4 this is really nice. At 20 euro this is a steal.

  January 24, 2012 - Dark purple. Strong dark fruit driven nose with a bit of spice and well balanced vanilla. Dark fruit mouth with a lot of creamy interest - spicy liquorice. Nice acidity to go with the extracted fruit. This is a heavy extracted wine for my taste but with good freshness and well matched acidity to counter the weight.

  January 7, 2012 - nice deep ruby to dark purple color in the glass. Raw meat, smoked meat, black pepper and gun flint dominate the nose. The palate is also savory - meaty, bloody, and minerally with unripened brambly fruit at the core. midpalate is a bit thin but the medium peppery finish is quite pleasurable. not overly sophisticated but there is a subtle complexity which makes this a bit exciting. I can see this evolving somewhat over the next 5 yrs.
