Dark red. Earthy dark fruit profile, plums and earth with a bit of sweetness. Nice medium plum and black cherry flavours and a dry finish.
This wine was drunk at the excellent new Vancouver restaurant Ensemble. My concern is the lack of Gamay character. The 2010 screams Gamay while this wine says mediocre Cotes du Rhone. Not flawed or unpleasent but makes me wonder.

Jammy, sugary. Slightly unbalanced, integrated with time. Delicious.
