April 20, 2023 - Pretty awesome tonight. Lovely, lively, juicy, elegant, light. Black olive and blackberry nose. Pure syrah fruit and savory olives with an elegant body. Pure deliciousness, and now some secondary goodness.

February 17, 2023 - This was very good, indeed! Much better than my last bottle (tasting note 09.08.2021). Lots of fruit and florality! Beautiful and classic syrah! Drink or hold.

May 26, 2022 - Joli vin floral, avec ces notes de violette et de fruits rouges. Il montre une bonne concentration et une certaine élégance. C’est rond et souple, agréable, avec une bonne énergie. 87 pts

February 8, 2022 - Final bottle from a full case purchased from the Dutch importer in 2016. Unlike the bottle tasted in October 2021, this is immediately ready to go after opening, a light (12% ABV) but lovely Syrah, with crisp red berry fruit and energetic minerality, a relatively cool style in keeping with vintage, the aromas are more about flowers and white pepper than about smoky bacon and black pepper, fresh and direct, dry but with a nice silky souplesse, complete finish with good length. Uncomplicated but very charming. Marvellous QPR (this was € 13.90 at the time).

October 28, 2021 - Tart and reserved upon first opening, but pops with food. After reading Xavier's note I see I should have set it aside and waited, but it just didn't seem to have anything in reserve.
