  November 29, 2005 - This was a wine I really enjoyed at the last IVSA, I thought the price-point was fair - for our market that is, and I've always been a big fan of their Rhone blends in the past.
  The '02 is a medium bodied blueberry/blackberry fruited little monster, not huge on the palate but nicely concentrated. I found the wine did best with 1.5 hours of air, filling out some of the Grenache cranberries and spice.
  Black licorice and pepper, dark fruits, some bramble, a background of light oak. The finish is full with blackberries, sweet tannins, sour acid, and shrill intensity.
  I'd buy it again in a heartbeat!
