October 27, 2010 - Rather plummy and portly. Sweet fruit. Still some minor tannins. Likely atypical, but enjoyable.

October 5, 2010 - (Grill 23 – Boston) This, surprisingly, was a bit off. Classic Northern Rhone bacon fat and earth, but the palate was marred with a candy-like sweetness that is just not normal for this producer. I know the year was hot, and Voge (one of my two favorite producers or Cornas) did not handle it well based on this bottle. (87)
