Opens up with a nose of funk and barnyard. On tertiary flavors now, earth, underbrush and dark cherry fruit. Good depth, has turned a bit darker now, Very true to place and vintage. Will keep but not sure there is any reason not to drink up.

In a perfect spot now. The fruit is light, airy, elegant and in the lighter end of the spectrum. Notes of pepper, lavender. Aromatic, floral. Lovely wine as usual.

Still a beauty. Floral, pretty red fruit, light on its feet. Finesse and elegance. I like this much more than the 07/09/10/11 versions of the same wine. Charvin made great wines in 2008.

A beauty. The fruit is pure, pretty, refine and feminine. One of the best Cotes du Rhones I have ever tasted from Charvin. Floral and perfumed, Rayas-styled wine.
