March 22, 2024 - Very genuine Rhône feel, quite rustic, surprisingly, there is solid fruit behind, but it's dark fruit, and this must absolutely be served a bit chilled to preserve freshness, which is an issue here. Otherwise very local, garrigue galore. Will keep 5+ years no prob.

March 16, 2024 - Bette than last time I had it. Fruit has good density but dosen’t seem very fresh.

January 28, 2024 - Lush red and black fruit. Creamy palate supported by well measured acidity. This is one-dimensional, but who cares? Pleasant weekday wine.

January 5, 2024 - Good promising nose with complexity from mature berries and spices. Acid and tannins is in good balance but the fruit has lost to much freshness in my opinon. Shouldn’t be a problem for a 2016 Chateauneuf but it obviously is.

May 6, 2023 - No refinement here but works at least very well with food like gorgonzola sauce.
To be cellared another 5+ years to soften a bit.
