    March 27, 2015 - Pretty much unchanged from my last bottle. Good, straightforward, St. Joseph.

    December 13, 2013 - Nice, straightforward, easy St. Joseph. A bit one-note, but a good wine for the price.

  • french16 Does not like this wine:

    February 10, 2013 - Looks like they changed their label a little bit for 2011 but the wine showed a similar profile than the '09 I had 1.5 years ago. Some oak on the nose with a hint of orchard fruits (peach) and dark fruits. Even though the wine is only 13% it gives the impression of being much more alcoholic. Palate is full and again over oaked (despite only 10% new oak). Lacks acidity and is boring.

    January 7, 2013 - I liked this a little less than the 2010. It's missing the pepper on the nose, but is still a very savory syrah with good acidity and moderate tannins. Easy drinking, still a great value.
