Delightful. As complex and integrated as the best cdp of the vintage but with brighter acidity that speaks to how undervalued this appellation is. Black cherry, garrigue and liqueured framboise.

Stand A. Still very nice, all though not a keeper; loads of garrigue, black and red fruit, plumbs, a bit of acidity, harmony and yes, both old world and old age present. Loving it, but won't keep it.

Still excellent colour, not giving away its age. Nose and palate round and soft - not a lot of subtle details but a really nice glass of wine to go with an everyday meal. Must be mostly grenasche. Will last 2-3 years easily.

Rustic and over aged this would have been FAR better 4 years ago, yet it still has charm and balance and was decent with the dinner.
