  June 22, 2017 - Eclectic wine tasting (at my home): dark opaque red-purple-black
  excellent dark fruits spicy nose & palate, rich fruity flavours, delicate spiciness, well balanced & harmonised, excellent structure & complexity, seducing finish & aftertaste.
  A unique wine from a small series!

  May 27, 2013 - Au nez le vin est assez puissant, la cerise kirsch ressort fortement, je dénote également une légère sucrosité et du goudron. À ce moment, pour 196$ je suis perplexe... En bouche, le vin est incroyable, très dense, les fruits rouges explosent, belle masse tannique, finale assez longue et bien impressionnante. Une puissance hors norme qui est parfaitement contrôlée. Vaut-il 196$ ? Sans doute que non, mais comme le souligne Mat Foulidis (sur LPEL) il s'agit vraiment d'un vin unique...

  July 1, 2009 - Cotes du Rhone is inky in color. This 480 bottle cuvee, that's right, 480 whopping bottles were produced in 05 comes from terroir that is better than a lot of terroir from Chateauneuf. Very spicy with a good dose of cinnamom, melted blackberry and blue fruit on the nose. Tannic and packed and stacked wih dense, ripe fruit. This wine was a one time only effort and will not be produced again.

  July 1, 2007 - Uncorked DK: Chateauneuf 2005 Report: Dense almost black core. Very intense nose, essence of "high pitched" forrest fruits and some minerals. Tastewise it dissappoints a bit compared to the nose, maybe it's closed? My notes red: "very nice classic CNDP", but in fact it's a CdR! Great work. 92-93.
