Translucent, a hint of age.
A fruity nose, blackberries and dark plums, quite complex, inviting.
Fruity attack, strong acidity, tannins under control, sweetness in the mid palate, quite long.

Wine Education Service - The Northern Rhône (Imperial College): Age, opaque.
Disappointing nose.
A long way short of expectation.

A delightful bouquet of dried and fresh fruit.
Very rich fruity attack, quite tannic, full, peppery, very long.

Beginning to show a little age
Some development aromas mingled with baked fruit.
Fruity attack, refreshing, good acidity with tannins under control, great length.

    This wine is still youthful in its look, smell and taste. I have 7 bottles left and I'm not hurrying to finish them off. I expect to enjoy them during the next 4 years.
