Still very much in its drinking window with rich black raspberry, cola, pepper and leather. Fine tannins and nice acidity. Should go years yet. Very enjoyable.

Pretty good without being spectacular. Still a very dark purple colour. Some florals on the nose along with darker fruit. Black cherries and berries - in fact its far more dark fruited than I expected - liquorice, earth, mocha. Well balanced acidity and soft tannins. Medium length. Quite enjoyable but also eminently forgettable.

Minty, garrigue, floral, developed. I was looking for a wine with some bottle development and this was a home run. Everything you would want from a Southern Rhone, good acid balance, lightness with a nice tannin grip, a long spicy finish, excellent with braised short ribs and sherry infused mushrooms. The only drawback as this was their only bottle.
