Good quality as expected from Famille Perrin. A little softer and richer than a standard Cotes du Rhone or at least those I have had recently. It opens up nicely over time. Good value to pair with foods you might pair with a more expensive Chateauneuf.

Restaurant pnp. Nose shows red cherry fruit but is on the softer side. While the fruit is tannic and dark at first, it quickly softens into an easily approachable quaff.
Wouldn't ever decant this and while not as complex as the 2020, it's an easy drinker and a good value. I'd happily pick up a few of these for weekdays and summer afternoons in the pool.

Decanted one hour. Dark ruby. Smelled black cherry, blackberry, red fruit, and herbs; the taste adds in some black pepper and emphasized the savory herbs a bit more. Rather young and tannic, with enough acidity and certainly enough body to make it pleasant now with food. Finishes medium and fruity.
