  Red and not that interesting. Maybe needs more time in bottle.

  Fresh leather & Earth with Dark Cherry & Blackberry. Well balanced with firm acidity and ripe tannins. Smooth dry finish with smoky black pepper and ripe cherry. Benefitted from time to open up.
  A southern Rhone gem that you can afford.

  A deep ruby blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah, the 2017 version of Guy Mousset's Côtes du Rhône Villages Les Garrigues offers aromas and flavors of dark bramble fruits, licorice, scorched earth and clove. Medium-bodied, freshly acidic, lightly oaked, seamlessly alcoholic (14.5%) and with substantial rustic tannins, it stays solid on the mid-palate and closes with an astringent, medium-length finish. Give this another year in the cellar so that the tannins can better integrate. It may merit a higher score in the future. Drink 2021-2024.

  Fresh fruit with a bit bit of spice thrown in. Deep ruby color. Medium finish. A very simple, straightforward wine. It was nice to drink and have no complaints, but there are better for the same $ if not cheaper.

  Seems like Brett showed up to the party, brought a ton of barnyard friends into the house and now they won't leave... too much funk for me. Hope this plays out. Bad bottle?
