March 13, 2021 - This is as basic as it gets. Theres nothing substantial or noticeable regarding it - positive or negative. That doesn’t necessarily mean that is a bad thing - in fact facing the whole bottle in an evening was quite enjoyable - but it is what it is. 13.5% abv.

August 3, 2020 - Solid Cotes du Rhone. Medium bodied with smooth finish. Subtle leather and tobacco. Drinkable. Not as light as many not acidic st all very rounded.

March 13, 2020 - Not bad, perfumed, violet, rose petal... thin mouthfeel, high acid. Tannins need to calm down a bit. Will taste again after a day open.
