Thursday, October 26, 2006 - There is a lot here to like - I did not detect any stewiness that perhaps I was a bit worried about finding - however this really had a dominant spirity/hot element that I had a hard time getting past. Without this, it would be a 90/91 point, stuffing-filled CdP - not sure if the heat will integrate.
I'll note that I got this bottle for under $30 and the standard Guigal CdP remains a good value with a relatively mainstream flavor profile.
