December 5, 2019 - Very good fill, cork in good shape. Tawny color, but wine in great shape, no hint of oxidation. Usual tertiary aroma's of bacon fact, maybe a touch of VA, even some fruit left. Tannins resolved, balanced and full on the palate, not lean at all. Only good bottles at this age, but probably the best, and last, of the 4 I've drunk over the last 3 years.

October 6, 2005 - Lots of brett and rustic tannins with typical meaty/iron, and barnyard notes. The body is actually quite dense and showing no signs of decline. If you like these kinds of Rhones (I do) this is a very nice bottle.
