Nose: Blackberries, light mineral, leather, chocolate, slight perfume.

Palate: Full and fresh on the entry, slight bitterness on the mid-palate with dry dark fruit notes. Nice balance overall. Aftertaste has a chocolate note and is overall very balanced.

Cellared since release. Pop and pour, immaculate cork. Deep dark garnet almost to the rim, where it slightly bricks. Big legs. On the nose, blackberries, bramble, blackcurrant, herbal notes. On the palate, cool fruit is still very much present, black cherries and ribena, finished with notes of tobacco, along with wonderful acid and broad tannins. Well balanced, alcohol does not stand out at all. Medium length finish, carried by the acidity and fruit. I’m very impressed by how it held up. It’s aged really well, and is drinking superbly on opening - however, it does fall apart after 30 minutes. Drink now, it will continue to decline from here. To think I paid $14 dollars for this?! Good value.

We had it open for about an hour before we started on it and it was definitely better towards the end of the bottle.

Soft, red berries, garrigue, fine acidity with good mouthfeel. Perhaps a bit warm finish. Overall nice everyday red.

Den femte av sex flaskor årgång 2013. Än så länge blir 2013 bara bättre och bättre. Stor doft av många mörka bär. Mjuka tanniner och lång eftersmak av mörka bär och ”mogen” ek

The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like black currant (cassis), blueberry, blackberry, raisin and almond. It tastes like prune. The body is medium/full. The wine has polished texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

Medium dark red color. Dark cherry bouquet. Soft, rich, round, and supple, this wine is forward and drinks well now. Medium length and finishes with a hint of spice. Delicious today, but should easily hold another couple of years.
A blend of 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre.

Peaches and floral aroma. Possesses a creamy texture on the palate. A full-bodied white wine that displays a tasty interplay of yellow fruit and balancing acidity. Very fresh right now and probably should be consumed young.
A blend of 60% Grenache Blanc, 20% Marsanne, and 20% Roussanne.

Retail $20. 75% Grenache, 25% Syrah. Well, it has been a minute since I last tasted this wine. According to my notes, I liked the last bottle far better than the previous and so on. Well, that trend continues as this bottle is clearly the best of the four bottle lot that I purchased online so many years ago. While the previous iterations were laden with Brett and a bit of reticence that one only experiences in the most austere instances, this wine is, well, stellar. And it's a wine of conflict: Fruity, yet austere; fresh, yet stewed; round, yet tart. Whoa. I don't know if I have ever tasted a wine that was initially so aggressive and standoff-ish, but evolved into a megatron--powerful, beautiful, elegant. OK, my Transformers references need work. But this is close to mind-blowing. thedrunkencyclist.com

Dark fruits, berries, and a bit of herbs on the nose. Dark fruit, mocha, and baking spice on the palate. While the fruit was the dominant aroma, it is starting to fade a bit on the palate. Medium body, medium acid, nice medium to long finish.

This was a lost bottle in my cellar I expected to throw away. But wow, so flavorful. Doesnt not have the complexity of the best CDP, but comes together so well with sphaghetti alla vodka. Flavors of smoked cherries, kumquats, and mint. Velvety smooth. A tinge of alcohol at end which I don’t love . Yummy wine!

This was the last bottle and after last one a few years ago this has seemingly IMHO dropped off a bit. It actually was lost in cellar and decided I better open. Still nicely balanced easy drink but fruits a bit faded and not much complexity.
