Dark ruby off dry nose of dark fruits (plum?) and alcohol: 15% definitive leather taste (pleasant). Med-long finish. Benefited by decanting 1hr: mild astringent éléments smoothed out. Very complex wine for the price. Wish I had a case...

Very good GSM, it taste like some Gigondas or other Rhone red wine. Deep purple with touch of blackcurrant and leather. Very good wine that was in the top100 of winespectator.

Juicy blackberry and mixed berries. Backed by anise/licorice. Needs a little more of that typical mineral/acids of Cotes du Rousillion and it would be great.

Quite dark in colour. Has an aged note in the nose with dried plum, leather. The palate is compact with broad flavours, medium acidity and low tannins. Pleasant. A very interesting wine, complex. A bit porty. But could do with just a bit more tannins to give it a stronger finish.

The wine looks purple colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry and raspberry. It tastes like blueberry, raspberry and strawberry jam. The body is medium. The wine has linear texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

Really nice GSM + a little carignan. Well balanced, somewhat fruit forward. Tannins are soft and still developing. Acidity is med, body is med(+). Great value at ~$25. 91-92.

Has a little age on it. Little barn yard on nose. Mouth smooth and balanced. I thing special. Probably should have drank earlier.

Nice Southern Rhône Cotes taste. It has some kick and aging ability.

Quite restrained, juicy black fruit on the nose.
Silky texture. Elegant. Ripe fruit, yet elegant.
