  Have loved these for years. Past prime with hints of once great flavors and finish.

  Pungent aromas of lavender, rosemary, French herbs and then red cherry. Medium+ body which offers up lots of flavour with sour, bruised red cherry, savoury grilled meats on the mid palate and a savoury, spicy finish. Complex, enormously enjoyable and fantastic value.

  Tragically, this wine may be moving past its prime. It was a beauty while it lasted, but the fruit is not as bright as it once was. Drink now, if you still have some.

  The biggest disappointment with this wine was the bouquet, which didn't exist. It was a pop and pour, so i probably should have allowed it more time to breath, but even after sipping for nearly an hour I wasn't picking up much of a difference. Apart from nose, the fruit was pleasant enough, showing mostly dark elements and bit of forest floor, but overall nothing all that rememberable.

  'Le Pigeoulet' is the name of the plot where the winery resides at the foot of La Crau. More mineral, more concentration in the aromas vs the '10 Montfaucon. A fantastic and fresh appeal on the palate.
