February 19, 2023 - The garrigue runs strong! The fruit is ripe and mature. Tannins are still a bit fierce. Overall a very nice wine, but a bit raw. I wonder if it will mellow with age, but I'm not sure. Worth keeping a while to see if it mellows. It has power but lack mellow.

January 9, 2023 - (Verkostet aus der Magnum im Rahmen der C9dP Probe von Peter Buser. 60% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah). Mittleres Rubinrot, aufgehellte Ränder. Die Nase ist komplex, verbindet dunkle und rote Beeren, nussige Noten, ein Hauch Mokka, Medizinschrank, Süssholz, auch etwas Staubigkeit schwingt mit. Im Gaumen kräftig, sehr dicht, viel Struktur, markante Gerbstoffe, die Frucht ist anfangs etwas verhalten, gewinnt im mittleren Gaumen wieder die Oberhand, knackig, wild, sehr energetisch, dieser Wein ist ungemein frisch und sehr lang im Abgang. Hat grosse Reserven. Könnte in fünf bis zehn Jahren noch einen Zacken zulegen. 94 vvPunkte www.vvwine.ch

March 5, 2022 - Looks like this is seven out of a case…. Well night one was…
Underwhelming.
Unyielding, tight and clipped.
Tonight
Dark fruits, very deep and rich with a touch of smoke. My quick synopsis is pop this hours before drinking and decant! It’s a tremendous wine that still has years to go. Should last to 2030-2035.
