January 28, 2022 - Not bad. Wouldn’t guess Rhone if tasting blind as it was more like a Beaujolais. Medium red color. Quasi floral nose with high alcohol. Tannic with bright red fruit on the palate. Medium minus finish.

January 5, 2022 - Nice fruit up front, with cherry and raspberry, some garrigue, tar, dried fruit, and chocolate on the back end. Alcohol is prominent (15% ABV) and tannins are soft and well-integrated, leading to a smooth mouthfeel.

November 27, 2016 - Similar tasting notes as 2015. Still needs quite a bit of air. Picks up a nice silky body on day two with a med-long fruit and mineral finish.
