  August 13, 2019 - Another couple of bottles forgotten at the bottom of my cellar, fortunately still full of fruit, brambly blackberries spices, deep colour with herbal scents, just fading on the rim, at its peak or just passed, saved by the bell, nice wine, both bottles consumed same evening and enjoyed by all, good drink.

  July 29, 2015 - based on memory, this was a near decadent gigondas experience. It was weighty and packed with fruit but all in good balance.
  
  90-93

  One of my favs of the tasting (there was a '98 Clape Cornas, etc), and to find out this is so modestly priced is insane. Such polish and poise, I put this at $40 easily. Honest, soulful. very highly recommended, 14,0% abv, thru 2018

  December 4, 2012 - A blend of 65% Grenache, 20% Mouvedre, and 15% Syrah. An excellent mix of brambly garrigue and deep fruit flavors and scents from start to finish with excellent balance. Gets even better with time in the glass. This is a fantastic value at $22.

  July 14, 2012 - Aromas of black cherry, black raspberry, garrigue, spice and minerals. Medium-plus bodied and medium acidity, with mainly black fruits, some red fruit and earth on the palate. Chewy tannins; as one would expect, quite young and in need of at least a few years cellaring. Good depth and length. Rounder and softer after 3 days, but still with a fair amount of grip.
