Beau nez sans lourdeur pour un 90 pourcent de grenache : ca sent le cacao, les fruits rouges et noirs mais pas avec l’aspect confituré ; la garrigue, avec un petit coté orange sanguine. On s’attend à un vin ferme et serieux. Ca se confirme en bouche avec une texture puissante mais ferme, sans sucrosité ; je l’ai finalement trouvé plutôt tradi que moderne alors que j’avais lu que le style était plutôt moderne

Would agree with some of the comments below: great wine, still too young. Very strong chocolate, almost overpowering at first then settled down. Quite concentrated and took a while to open in the glass. Some meaty overtones so will be great in a few years as the primary ripeness dissipates somewhat.

Only 4000 bottles made and this is my 2nd bottle within a month, I love to drink it again and again. If you like CNDP in modern style, don't miss it !!! Absolutely well-made, beautiful scents, hints a bit of Burgundy bouquet sometime. Charming !!!
.....I opened it 5-6 hours before drinking.....
The nose is very nice, the body is quite tight but fresh, complex, delicious and good in finish. Let's think about woman, She looks nice and sweet but in bed...she's so great, response every impact perfectly. When the wine is delicious, shouldn't wait any longer. ...a great wine-maker...

I enjoyed this wine a lot. Some heat in the first hour but the wine improved after some time. Drank the wine over a period of 6 hours.
