  October 23, 2022 - A hint of vanilla, with black fruit scents dominating the nose. Blackberry, blueberry and cherry jam on the palate. Good overall balance with alcohol nicely integrated. No oak and soft tannins. Give this several hours of air and have it with a heavy meal and you will be rewarded. Still somewhat primary but enjoyable nevertheless. A solid 91.

  October 15, 2022 - My first try of this value-priced Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Bought several other varietals from this producer from the 2016 vintage and found them all to be good value, this is no exception, though I think it's still early and I hope some additional complexity and depth will emerge with additional time. Plum, black cherry, dried leaves, compost and licorice on the nose. Satin texture, full-bodied, with firm chalky tannins. Cherry, dust and licorice on the palate, with a lingering dried fruit finish.

  April 24, 2021 - Tart cherry upon opening but ~2 hrs showed nice balance with fine finish and great nose. Drink now or 1 year. Cheers.

  October 3, 2020 - Very, very young. Lively fruit, more lively than usual from this adress, opens almost petitillant, is something changing here? Relaxes in the glass, comes together, smooth and approachable. plenty og sweet fruit, some tannins. Tightens on day 2, more local feel, minerals. Wait for this. 91+
