  August 12, 2022 - The covid test was negative but i am feeling poorly. It’s really hot and i should be trying out the latest Beaujolais cru’s or Langhe nebbiolo but i am tired and poorly so i turn to Rhone and the 2015 TWS museum release… this is exactly what the doctor ordered, comforting and soothing. A wine that leaves you feeling better, the black fruit and plum like a lozenge, the tannins now well integrated and the alcohol to sooth. Thank you Faravel brothers , this is just what i needed, a joyous medicine.

  January 28, 2020 - Nose of fruit, aniseed, cut grass, fennel and mukhwas - feels young (currently) and fresh, but with definite depth.
  
  Some small bits from the outset in the wine itself (possibly because unfiltered???)
  
  Spicy and clearly Rhône, the 14.5% alcohol is there but is carried nicely, pleasantly structured and tannic, but with a bitterness on the aftertaste which is maybe just slightly too strong at the moment - feels like it could do with another couple of years to mellow and open up.
  
  It’s an interesting wine that I’d certainly like to give another go in 3 or 4 years, might grab another one to cellar.

  August 18, 2018 - 14,5% alcohol is palpable but very well integrated. Very harmonious, balanced, fresh and ripe. Grenache 73%, Syrah 27%. 48/30 years old vineyards. Treated only by gravity, not filtered, aged on lees half old cask, half cement.
