Enjoyed this as a PnP weekday wine with Spaghetti Bolognese. Very easy drinking but very good value for money at £14. Shows the value of the satellite appellations in the Rhone. Lots of acidity and red fruit.

Translucent garnet with a slight pale rim and some legs. Initially a whiff of barnyard on the nose and them some hints of black fruit. In the mouth it feels darker than the colour suggests - it's got a good hit of acidity to balance lots of dark fruits and spices almost medicinal. Tannins are starting to integrate but still present. First of twelve - will be interesting to follow its development.

This is nice for the price; you taste the Grenache and the fruit; slightly drying finish
May improve a bit more with cellar time - has good fruit left and loads of tannins and acidity

Ruby red, good legs, pleasant with some prominent tannins. Fine but perhaps not best VFM. Wondering if this will improve with age or not.
