Tasted up against the same producers Lirac and Cairanne. This wine was more classic "Rhone" than the other two. The most developed and a bit more lean. It drinks very well now, but will keep for a few years more, no problem.

A charming, fresh and rather light-bodied Southern Rhone. At first a bit rough on the edges so give it air for an hour or so. The nose shows flowery elements, red berries and something meaty; dried and smoked.

Color: translucent dark red, dark dark edges, even slow legs Nose: mild, black & blue fruit, wet earth, menthol Palate: blackberry, dark cocoa, white pepper, Mouthfeel: smooth and inviting start, but long super dry finish
Paired very well with jerk chicken believe it or not. Not overly complex but very enjoyable. Probably at least another 5 years in the bottle.

Drank fine, could go a couple more years in the bottle. Went up against a shiraz from Concord region Victoria and came off second best.
