  July 29, 2014 - - Purple color with medium forming legs. It's somewhat balanced with a medium/full body. Smooth texture with a medium finish - A nice but not great wine. Nose was pleasant even when the wine was still relatively cool (14 dgr celsius). Quite full and impressive actually. Body is medium to full, pleasant but not impressive. Finish was a bit disappointing, at best medium but not living up to my expectations. Wine should be drunk over the next year or so.

  November 6, 2013 - Monthly Tasting Group EEE #022; France Northern Rhône (@ MG): Complex bouquet with ripe red as well as dark forest fruits leather and licorice. On the palate ripe red fruits, white pepper and clove. A firm amount of sweetness balanced by good acidity. Good minerality. Round and soft tannin with still a good bite. The wine is still very much alive and mature now, but it can easily last until 2015.

  May 21, 2007 - Light ruby blood red. Spicy bouquet wit acidity. Also a lot of acidity in the taste and spices like pepper and thyme. A medium bodied wine which is still quite young.
