  April 12, 2024 - Red-fruited with a middling dollop of the dark cherry/kirschwasser aromas that S Rhone Grenache usually provides. Balanced, smooth, with just a little heat showing, it exemplifies what I like about CdP.

  June 21, 2023 - In a difficult year for Grenache this is really very good - in the middle of its drinking window. I do admire Charvin for his straightforward range (no super cuvees) and consistent quality.

  May 17, 2023 - Quick note: although still quite youthful, this is drinking wonderfully at present, with delightful notes of fresh herbs, sandalwood powder and an impression of stoney minerals on the nose. Cherry fruits on the palate are buffered by refreshing acidity and chalky tannins and the plus close. Keeps getting better with aeration, just an impressive CdP and one that is only entering the beginning stages of the ideal drinking window - should be an absolutely fabulous (if not truly epic) drinking experience in 3-5+ years while holding steady for many more to come.
  
  edit: to think this was $40 on release... *sigh*

  February 8, 2023 - This really contradicts the often rather austere vintage with its lack of Grenache: this is light, elegant, very Burgundian, vibrant with plenty of red fruit Stil a young wine, many years to go here.
