Gargantua Likes this wine:
July 4, 2022 - On the nose lots of powdered ground stone, Fresh corn, barnyard a bit but in a completely manageable / tourist/y cute way, and some pronounced raspberry and blueberry and a boysenberry finish. The papery Grenache tannins are still here in the finish but it helps keep the exuberant fruit and sweet corn barnyard aroma in check. With time, as it accumulates on the palate, the finish goes in this white chocolate direction. Pretty nice.

August 16, 2021 - Outstanding southern Rhone, great expression of the terroir, evolved nicely in the glass over a few hours, but even immediately on opening you could taste the earth and barnyard. Paired wonderfully with lamb

March 1, 2021 - An excellent wine with a little air. Minerally. Laden with the elusive garrigue that marks many sublime southern rhones. Beautiful nose: raspberry and other dark red fruits. Wish I had more!
