Sunday, July 12, 2015 - Cellared since release, perfect cork and fill. Pop and pour. Dark red to rim. Cherries, dark fruits, and a raisiny character on the nose. Plenty of acid but still manages to be cloyingly over-ripe. I'm a fan of modern ripe Chateauneuf but this tastes like a Grenache recioto. Went back after a few hours but still no redeeming qualities. The only bottle that wasn't drained on the night, the last half was poured down the drain. Average at best.
