October 27, 2022 - Final bottle from the three pack, about 8 months after the last. This bottle feels a little fresher, but my views are pretty much the same. Sweet, slightly stewed plum on the nose. Not so much herbal element this time, but still a touch. Seems a touch of brett as well. Nice persistence and depth on the palate. These are perhaps a shade over priced, but I would probably still buy again, with a view to drinking around 6-8 years of age. Not sure what longer-term aging would do to this.

February 12, 2022 - Second bottle of a three pack. The reviews for this seem to describe a glossy, very ripe wine that one might expect from Roussillon, but actually this is in a way more medium bodied with impressive balance. Maybe the five years of age have done the trick. Slightly herbal on the nose, with red berry characters, and an even, medium length palate. There is a bit of confected, stewed fruit on the nose that might give away warm climate Grenache, but otherwise this would be a tricky old thing in a blind. This should hold awhile but I’m not sure if it will really improve. 91-92pts (not sure how RPJ got to 95+)
