Halleluja. After a bunch of flawed bottles, I finally got a good one again, this time from Magnum. Notes of red and darker berries, some meat, roasted bone marrow, also some pepper and spices, and garrigue. It‘s pretty full-bodied, with good persistence, has medium acidity and some lower-medium tannin. There might be a touch of volatile acidity, but it‘s in check and not as dominant as in some of the last bottles. Good lenght. Very good CdP.

We loved this wine. Perfectly balanced and smooth. Layer after layer of flavors. We could drink this every night. Outstanding.

Acidic and tight. Purchased on release and stored in a temperature controlled cellar. Running it through an aerator helped a bit.

Wonderful full-bodied wine. #2 in wine tasting behind an Outpost cab and essentially tied with a '13 Reva. Lots of fruit, integrated, fairly smooth.

Excellent! $83 at auction and worth it. Full of flavor without any distractions. I will seek out other vintages.
