94 Points

Sunday, January 17, 2016 - Incredible power and concentration for a 13 year old wine. Big nose of espresso, coffee beans, plum, bacon fat, raspberry liqueur, bittersweet chocolate. Rose petal and lavender coming out with time. Similar on the palate, with some black olive and coulis emerging too. Very fresh and rich finish, tannins well resolved. Would never have guessed older St. Joseph, possibly learner Gigondas or CDP from a good producer. Regardless, an excellent wine if you appreciate it stylistically and keep the vintage in mind.
