Nez intense de fruits noirs, de sous-bois, de garrigue et de fines herbes. Un vin souple et concentré, riche et ample, fruité et succulent aux tannins fins. Les saveurs de fruits sucrés entrelacés de réglisse noir lui donne une longue finale de confiture bien sucrée. Très bon mais un peu sucré. 90-

This is a big Rhone blend that needs at least 5 more years in bottle. Very primary, almost jammy, and yet astringent and hot. Deep almandine in the glass.
Bold nose with a dominant smoked paprika note, heavy oak influence in the form of leather and chocolate as well as ripe plum and blackberry.
Heavy on the palate with firm, bitter tannins, powerful acidity and spicy, burning alcohol.
Flavours are quite sweet with clove, black licorice and sweet black fruit.
Long, hot finish.
Drink 2025-2036

Nez de bleuets, de pot-pourri, de barrique... Un vin charmeur...souple, harmonieux, équilibré, ample et fondu. Longue finale. 92+

A very good fruit forward red. Good bit of complexity to round out juiciness. Just what I would expect from Australia. Very enjoyable!
