Savory nose of smoked herbs and olives. Buried raspberry, licorice and blueberry fruit. Medium bodied with sweet raspberry, olive and mocha infused chalky tannins. In a good place now.

Dark red color, very pleasant fruit & dried spice aroma, full bodied, mouth coating cherry & chocolate flavors that linger. Medium complexity. Even better on day 2. Wonderful.

Robe foncée et brillante. Nez sur des arômes de cassis et de mures En bouche : les tanins sont bien souples, c'est gouleyant. Un verre en appelle un autre. Bue à une température de 15 à 16°, l'alcool ne se fait pas sentir très bon RQP

Gave this Rhone blend (40% Black Grenache, 30% Carignan, 20% Syrah, 10% Mouvedre) from Côtes du Roussillon 120m of air, given its youth. Medium/Dark Purple color. Lovely and fragrant of strawberry and cherry, with hints of blueberry, baking spices and vanilla. Red fruit on entry, with hints of blueberry and spice, but aggressive tannins take over in the mid-palate and finish. Tightly wound, this improves a little with time in glass, but never realizes the promise hinted at by the aromas.

Very concentrated dark fruits, typical of the Saint-Roch style. For the price of $20, it's a fruit-bomb lover's wine.

A lovely blast of boisterous, bright red fruit and spice. Mouth filling, rich and lengthy. Excellent balance. Fantastic QPR.

Red fruit, pepper long finish. Some tannins, well balanced, some heat on the finish.
