  • Ramat-Aviv Boys meeting (At Hugo's): Good aroma, lean palate, low fruitiness, dry, woody, its best days are over

  • On it’s down. Should be drinking a couple of years ago.

  • I rarely have occasion to say this about a wine that is not overtly flawed... corked, past its prime or similarly defective. But here, it must be said: this wine is well-nigh undrinkable. On opening, it is an inky purple. Aromas of creosote wood treatment products dominate. On the palate, it is all coarse grit sandpaper tannin and soft warm road tar. Fruit is not in attendance.

    I've given this wine three days to settle down. In that time, the color has shown signs of oxidation - it is now tinged with red and bricking at the rim. The nose is a tad less aggressive, but presents the same range of aromas; ditto the palate.

    Granted, in matters of taste 'a chacun son gout,' but how this wine could possibly merit '98 points' is truly beyond me. It may merit a place in a stew pot, but even that would carry some risk. Avoid.

  • We had this wine with Italian food- spaghetti and meatballs. It had strong spicy fruit flavor and was just delicious.

  • CdP von der Perrin Familie, aus den jüngeren Rebanlagen des großen Beaucastel. Im Moment vielleicht nicht in bester Form, direkt aus der Flasche mit einer penetrant-klebrigen Vanille- und Erdbeernase. Das gibt sich mit der Zeit. Viel Zeit. Wird dann feiner, die Erdbeere bleibt, leichte Garrique-Noten, guter Säurenerv, erster Schmelz, ein wenig staubig, im Abgang etwas Tannin. Alles in allem ein runder, aber unspektakulärer Wein, dürfte aber noch zulegen.
