June 23, 2023 - This was discounted down to $20. It's not bad but obviously fading away and drying out; the fruit is nearly gone. Formerly an excellent value but not worth buying today.

August 25, 2022 - Highly aromatic w barnyard, leather, cinnamon, sweet tobacco, cassis, hint of violet
P v rustic, iron twinged minerality, dark cherry, anise, hint of mocha on finish that is viscous and decent
Good, $38 -

October 8, 2021 - Delicious GSM that's drinking perfectly now and probably has years left. Much better after breathing or with next-day bottle remainder.

February 11, 2021 - We really enjoyed this and was a nice value at $17, in 2020 for a 5 year old wine. Berries, cassis, cherries, spice, pepper, garrigue, olives, minerals, and some funk IMO, a big step up from a CdR for similar pricing, maybe a few dollars more. Would buy again at $16.99.
