An impeccable food wine. The first of my six bottles and I can’t wait to dig into more. Drinks like great burgundy with a hint of rusticity. Delicate, and complex on the palate. Like drinking great perfume.

Punching way about it's weight right now. Still has plenty of fruit and tannins, could go another 5 years easy. This is acting like a Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Wonderful cherry kirsch and tar on the palate. A bit of barnyard on the nose but nothing too funky. Just a great Southern Rhone.

Decanted for 4 hours. This wine really stepped up tonight. Tart red fruit and wonderful earthy qualities raised everyone's eyebrows at the table. It was the wine of the night among a 92 Château Haut Marbuzet and an '06 Daniel Bocquenet Vosne-Romanée.
