As usual, I love this wine, in particular due to its nice salt licorice type of minerality. Nice, balanced fruit as well, dominated by fresh strawberries. Drinking well now but could still improve with time.

A bit closed on day 1, but after 24 hours in the fridge it was more expressive. The 2010 seems to be a bit less opulent and fruity than the 2007. It is still quite a full bodied and powerful wine, but it manages to combine these features with a freshness and elegance that i love. Red fruits, licorice, herbs, meat and stones. Great!

Popped and poured, The acidity seems somewhat tart. There's still a lot of good fruit. The wine seems pretty young.

Tasting really smooth now. The high alcohol taste has receded. Probably won't keep a whole lot longer

A beautiful fruit-driven Cotes de Rhone. Smooth on the palate and a delight with food.
