Started off big with bright plum and white pepper. Drank over next 3 days and this wine really suprised me. Turned very mellow, cranberry juice, smooth with a dry finish. Some good funk on the nose as well. Would pair really well with food.

Consumed over 2 nights. Initially PnP & drank over 1.5 hrs. Wow, nice & spicy on entry w/robust pepper kick. Aromas of currant & dark berries, loads of white pepper, garrigue, earth & touch of herb. Likewise flavors w/a more earthy & herbal quality, and later developed some minerality the next day. Soft integrated tannins, good mix of acidity in a medium:full-bodied texture & medium finish. Pleasantly delighted w/this one.

Power and structure. Garrigue galore. Perhaps a bit dry towards the end but that's nitpicking. Great!
