  This full-bodied and massive wine is in a great and balanced phase at the moment: the lush fruitiness is still there, but the tannins have softened and integrated. The taste is very rich, deep and captivating, providing alluring notes of ripe blackberries, blueberries, plums, tar and herbs. As a whole, the wine is really enjoyable now. I am not sure, if it will still get better; the answer likely depends on how mature Rhône wines you just prefer to drink.

  Coravin. Big and bold with sweet dark red fruit. On the nose, blind I would have guessed a port. Garrigue, smoked blueberries with an alcoholic sting. Not really my style but like it anyway. 91 p.

  Dark fruit, licorice, smokey BBQ sauce. Very concentrated, a bit hot but it works. Massive!

  Remaining half of a coravined bottle. Served cool, this did not display alc heat that others have noted. Rich and layered, this was well balanced and gorgeous. Still showing primary fruits and a bit of tannic grip, there is plenty of time to allow further development.
