  October 7, 2020 - Pleasant surprise, juicy, bright, and energetic with lifted dark fruits. Great balance here between 80% Grenache, 20% Syrah. Not particularly complex, but not dead simple. Nice QPR. Great at the table. 14% abv showing no heat at all.

  A: Pale ruby
  N: medium (+) nose., Strawberry, cranberry, pomegranate, menthol.
  P: Dry, medium (+) acid, high alcohol (14%), medium body, medium (+) coarse tannin, medium intensity and finish.
  C: The wine is out of balance and tasted overly stalky. The wine lacks complexity with only two flavor clusters represented and the modest length and fruit concentration contribute just a little to the quality. The wine is of acceptable quality and is youthful. It is made for early consumption and is not suitable for ageing.

  November 26, 2019 - Very well made. I had around the same time as the 2015 Domaine de la Janasse Cotes do Rhone, which I liked better. Maybe if I hadn't had that so close to this one, I'd have enjoyed this more. It was not quite as good. Cooler, somewhat less robust tastes, IMO. If you like a little bit more subdued CDR, this might be a good choice.
