December 1, 2021 - Terrific, mature Châteauneuf, cool, upright, more blue than red - reminds me of Vieux Telegraphe. Funky, sous bois notes, mint. A point.

August 31, 2020 - Pale garnet. Dried red fruit, garrigue herbs, pepper, cloves, mushroom, earth, savoury. Fully developed. Fresh acidity, med- tannins, fine, med+ body and alcohol, mineral palate. Long finish. Not suitable for further ageing. Best of these last bottles. Drinking beautifully, possibly fading a little. Outstanding. Lovely bottle to celebrate Olivia’s 20th.

Not suitable for further ageing. But this bottle was better than the last - had greater concentration of fruit and slightly riper. Very good indeed.

March 28, 2020 - Pale garnet. Tart dried red fruit, garrigue herbs, eather, spice. Fully developed. Fresh acidity, med- tannins, fine, med+ body and alcohol, mineral palate. Medium finish, slightly sour. Fades quickly. Drink up, not suitable for further ageing. Probably past its best now but still very enjoyable.

April 20, 2017 - Similar to previous poster. Upon opening, Grenache dominated nose and palate. Integrated tannins, great structure. Been open 2 hours and still plenty of life left.
