September 27, 2021 - Further to my Note of Aug 3, '21: While not complex, this was delicious as an everyday Crozes--rich, dark, not left long enough to decline. I'm going back to notable+. Glad to have a few more for near-term.

August 3, 2021 - Further to my Note of July 31 '18: this is #7 or 8. Good cork. Decanted with normal sediment for its age. Good dark purple color, rich mature red fruit. This was solid. I downgraded this to notable 3+ years ago--not sure that was premature, but this bottle was good. Fully mature, no need to wait, but certainly enjoyable.

April 25, 2020 - On the lighter side for Crozes-Hermitage, but smooth tannins, balanced acidity and very nice fruit. A steal at under $15. Still drinking well, although no longer improving.

December 23, 2018 - Color has not faded at all. Dark purple to rim. Nose dark plums, red fruits. Taste is dry with mineral edge to it, very good balance for low $$$ Croze Hermitage. 2010 vintage quality is superb. Bought 3 cases from CH when they had this for $8/bottle. Incredible bargain. Years left on these. Have experienced some bottle variation- likely due to cheap corks.

July 31, 2018 - Tried another bottle of this after trying it 3+ weeks ago (see my note for July 7, 2018). I enjoyed this bottle more--more fruit in the body than I detected before--but it has faded and will not improve. I stand by my earlier evaluation that this has dropped from notable+ to notable.
