A lovely perfumed, floral and elegant nose. Medium purple color. Full of black fruit, soil and herbal notes, pleasurable to drink especially if you enjoy ripe Loire cab franc. I've really enjoyed the wines I've had from this producer and am anxious to try the top cuvee, the Escalma.

nice bottle of wine. Tasted like an old school southern rhone wine with in your face fruit but great minerality and a certain steeliness on the patate. day two and three it developed some earthy notes on the back end. a little grenachy for my palate but I am intrigued... a opened by accident. should have held it longer. torn on whether I should buy more for $55....
