  Excellent cork. Needs decanting from deposit. Colour fairly dense, quite some red, fairly mature. Nose very northern Rhône ripe but not overly sweet, lively and pleasing. Some tannin, quite solid wine, alcohol just noticeable but well balanced by acid. Quite well rounded mouth feel. Still a few years to improve but not so long that the tannin diminishes too much. Needs some air, it was a bit harsh on opening but not for long. I'm happy to keep for a few years.

  Oaky, ripe style with abundant vanilla fudge, sweet spice, liquorice, and grilled meat. Smooth, sweetish, somewhat alcoholic, 'yummy' but not very fresh. Ready now, won't improve with further cellaring. Bottom line: a pity on fine Mauves vineyards.

  Suave hinting at modern, but undeniably delightful.
