A couple of tasters today noted some barnyard notes, that I'm not getting here at all. A bit mean and smokey. Dense in the aromas. Black fruit and garrigue. Has an early drinking appeal, and rather up front and giving for relatively young CndP. A touch chestnut-y on the nose. A rather inviting palate texture that goes down easy.

Light quaffer. Not a hitter, just easy drinking. Slightly drying on finish

Earth, spice, a bit of old barrel, maybe just a hint of brett?

Smokey, with some earthy notes, has some freshness.

A stinky rendition of Chateauneuf. How these producers get away with making wines at x4 the price of Cote du Rhone I don't understand.
