Day 1: Rocks, mild funk, spice, raspberries, white pepper, sour cherry, floral and earth. While the descriptors sound good the finish is really weak. Not really able to give it a score at this time. Day 3: Disappointing. Le Meal should be better so not scoring this wine as I think it had everything to do with the vertical storage on the top shelf a local liquor store. Recommendation: This wine is not enough to put the flaw button but the storage was not ideal and another example of wine shops not providing the consumer with proper storage conditions.

Killer Ermitage with roasted notes, black fruits, med+ weight but still elegant; lots of dark soil minerality, granite dusty thing, good age right now for '13--just coming on line, and will go for much longer. Great with burgers prepared by Rick Arline. Adrien's b-day

Vin agréable mais simple, sans la profondeur qu’on pourrait attendre de la cuvée.
