February 11, 2022 - Deep garnet in the glass. The bouquet clearly etches what the palate is about to deliver: cassis, plum, tobo, a touch of iodine, herbs de Provence, smoked meats and bit of tangerine zest. The mouthfeel is hefty; weighty even. The finish is a touch short, but packed full of mingling flavors. This is a wine that is hitting all cylinders just now. Some slight sediment. 15% alc. and it doesn’t show at all. With various cheeses (including Mountain Top Blue), crusty bread, and ham relish that paired very well with the wine. 02.11.22. Recommended, but leaning heavily toward Highly Recommended.

May 16, 2020 - Powerful and hot yet complex with subtle earthy notes, cigar and cayenne pepper hints. Nose of Black cherry, blackberry jam with hints of turpentine. Full bodied, long in mouth, dry finish. Very enjoyable

June 30, 2018 - 瓶醒3小时，配餐杯醒，红宝石色，香气扑鼻，有胡椒味儿，口感绵密，单宁细致，酒体高，强壮，浓得化不开。

March 29, 2018 - Nice! Not overly complex but very well balanced and drinkable. 15% alcohol is sometimes a problem but not here. Grenache (70%), syrah (20%), mourvèdre (10%).
