Zweder wrote: 97 points

September 25, 2017 - Weekly tasting group RWP #264: Southern Rhône 12 x 2010 (@ VD): In the bouquet dark berries, garrigue, licorice, bretty impressions, red currants, leather and a bit rustic. On the palate juicy dark berries, firm acidity, pleasant barnyard and forest impressions. Good acidity, round tannin and truly a great pleasure. A beauty now and in 10+ years as well! Really nice ;-) Thank you Laurence!
