Community Tasting Note

  • dwhit wrote: 86 points

    November 24, 2014 - Beautiful deep garnet robe with no bricking, nice nose of red fruits and garrigue, but in the mouth just a blast of rather uninteresting sweet red fruit ( one man's 'Kirsch' is another man's 'syrupy' ) without any nuance or secondary flavors, followed by too much heat. This would not stand out as a CdeP in a blind tasting of California Rhone wines. I'll wait for a few years to try the next bottle, hoping for some interesting complexity to develop, but that heat will never go away. Way too expensive for what it is.
