April 4, 2024 - Dark inky purple/red in color. Complex aromas of black small fruits, menthol/camphor, baking and savory spices on the nose. Very juicy on the palate showing crushed sweet blackberries, cassis, savory Indian spices, medium acidity, fully resolved tannins and a long finish dominated by menthol. This is very good. I guess a small nit is that it is perhaps too polished and modern and does not show the 'typicity' and 'rusticity' of a Crozes.

February 12, 2024 - Drank 4 bottles with friends watching the big game. A significant improvement over previous bottles. Less flash, more complexity. Still round, but also showing some minerality and earth which was nice. Good glug of Rhone if still a bit too stylized. (89)

January 9, 2024 - Very good, but not sensational. Full, but not particularly complex. Plenty of life left in this, I reckon.

December 2, 2023 - Dark reddish purple. The aromas take a while to show smoky blackberries, dried spiced meat, Indian spices and violets. A full to medium bodied palate shows sweet black fruits, hint of black olives, medium acidity, fine tannins and a savory, meaty finish.
