Community Tasting Notes 24

  November 10, 2016 - Le vin dégage des arômes de fruits noirs, de tabac, de réglisse et de fumée. La bouche est assez corsée, sur les fruits noirs et la fumée, c'est concentré et l'alcool est légèrement marqué, malgré ses 13,5% d'alc (il parait plus 14,5%...) Tout de même assez équilibré dans son ensemble. À l'aveugle, j'aurais possiblement "callé": Afrique du Sud.

  October 16, 2014 - Creamy and velvetly, berry pie. Easy drinking with slight tannins. A bit closed upon opening but shines after an hour or so. Vacqueras is hip.

  March 14, 2014 - Wow this is good! Still has all the finesse along with perfect balance. Big nose of plum and garrigue. Good minerality and dark fruit on the palate, still can't put this down. This was only $15?

  December 19, 2013 - Good straight fwd Rhone. It was balanced with aromas of plums and spices. There were rich plum flavors with some minerality. Not too much depth...maybe I should have let it decant and come to temp longer. Medium and dry finish that was very easy drinking.
