A great positive surprise. True to the year, that is showing better and better, the is cool, calm and collected, intense with kirsch, a bright vibrant style of neuf. Drinkng great, no hurry. #Bagnols-en-Fôret

Bought on release at the domaine and cellared since.
Dark berry fruits, iodine, lavender, sage, and leather on the nose. This is a dark fruited CdP, savory and sappy, with iodine, rare meat, and violets on the palate. Mid plus weighted with good depth and breadth. Finishes long with herbal notes. Outstanding but less good than what I thought was my last bottle 3 years ago.

Single piece cork, no seepage Pruney, tired aromas, a bit of garrigue. Opens up a touch but remains unexciting Palate was also tired, finish was slightly bitter and the flavours were cooked. I have had a fair amount of this cuvee, this bottle was clearly subpar. Lot 2603 14.5% abv

One was flawed. Second bottle was decent, yet nearing its end.
