Transparent light red. Cherries and candy in the bouquet like Gamay wines. Not very expressive on the palate, but there are some cherries as well as a touch of sweetness. Medium+ acidity. In fact a sad Chianti which tastes like a Beaujolais.

Purple red. Dark as well as red cherries in the bouquet. Quite tasty on the palate with a lot of cherries, spiciness, some chocolate and bell peppers. The tannin is a bit sticky. Medium length. Might improve a bit with a few more years of cellaring. Try in 2015.

Cherries and some fruit yoghurt impressions in the bouquet. Although the wine is a bit reticent there are a lot of ripe cherries on the palate. Some sticky tannin, firm acidity and some spiciness. A good wine, but I am not really impressed. Drink now and the next few years.

Quite light, ruby red. In the bouquet cherries and some earthiness. On the palate youthful and tasty with a lot of alcohol. There is some spiciness, white pepper, salty impressions, ok acidity and mild tannin. It is recognizable as a Southern Rhone wine, but in fact quite disappointing for a 2010.

Dark blood red. Fairly deep bouquet with minerality and some barnyard, but no real luxury. On the palate minerals, blood, black as well as red fruits, firm acidity and soft tannin. A really nice wine. Drink now and the next few years.

Clear ruby red with a slightly carmine rim. The bouquet is fruity, but also a bit reticent. Creamy mouth feel with ripe red fruits, some sweet spices, vanilla and raspberries. A touch of sweetness, soft acidity and mild tannin. A nice, but not really exclusive wine.

Clear carmine red. In the bouquet ripe red fruits and quite much alcohol. On the palate the same impressions. Ripe fruits, some laurel, sweetness and ok acidity. Hardly any tannin and soft bitterness. An ok, but not really impressive wine.

Clear blood red. Bouquet with ripe dark fruits and a touch of sweetness. On the palate a mouth filling wine with a firm amount of acidity, tart red fruits and cherries, some bell peppers as well. Vanilla from the oak. Slightly sticky tannin. Not really refined, but an ok wine. Ready now and the next few years. 83 - 85

Very dark blood red. Beautiful bouquet with luxurious oak, ripe dark fruits and sweet spices. On the palate concentrated, sweet spices, dark fruits, some smoke and tobacco. Good acidity and fairly mild tannin with a firm bite. Special and modern made wine. Ready now and no problem keeping this until 2017 or a bit later.

Clear almost purple red. A bit reticent bouquet with some earthy, dusty, creamy and lactic/yoghurt impressions. On the palate red fruits, some vanilla from the oak, sweet spices, elegant acidity and a touch of sweetness. Medium length. A good wine, but not really exclusive. Ready now and the next few years.

Deep bouquet with good oak, sweet spices and ripe red fruits. A mouth filling wine with red fruits, a lot of sweetness and a lot of acidity. Chocolate. The tannin is still a bit sticky. Wait until 2015. 87+

I almost have no words for it. Extremely light colored. Hardly any bouquet. Strawberry lemonade on the palate. Very soft acidity and no tannin at all. Nothing really wrong with it, but certainly not my taste.

Carmine/orange brown color. On the palate a lot of chocolate, concentration and a firm amount of sweetness. Completely soft and imho a bit too old already. No score.
