Very strong impression of a chalky, mineral driven wine that delivered decent and complex cherry fruit. Very fine grained tannin building an elegant structure. Balanced in all ways and much more elegant than a lot of Châteauneuf du Pape bottlings. Great!

A tour of Spain (Berry Bros, London): initially slight cork taint/oxidised. Medium minus aromas of ripe red berries, cream and spice and slight leather. In the mouth there are concentrated flavours of red berries and spice, medium plus body and medium acidity that is juicy. Overall there is an impression of richness. very nice for what it is.

Vanilla, berry, full on the initial taste, then mellows. Nice tannin but would drink in the year

Delicious right now. Peppery, soft. Was wonderful with salmon, risotto and a lemony salad dressing.

Quality grenache, approachable and enjoyble now, but has long way to go still...
