Definite stewed fruits on the nose, blackberry, raspberry, black currants - it's like a summer fruits pie! The palate is dry and smokey with a good level of spice, but nowhere near the fruit levels that the nose leads you to think are there. This is a nice wine that I would be pleased to receive but not proud to give.

Very hot wine. Clear raisin flavours. Plenty of heat stressed grapes. The balance however appears to me very well proportionate. It isn’t sweet or marmalade’ish. If you like not to complex Syrah this if some alternative. Anyway! It is produced by one of the most famous Rhone winemakers.

Franchement encore décevant pour ce producteur réputé... correct mais vaut pas les 20$ demandés.

moderne, séduisant, et on voit quand même le style graillot, mais en moins précis. Très bon pour les 20$ demandés
