January 22, 2013 - A bottle that slipped by my review and spent too much time in my cellar. Still, the wine was pleasant with food, smooth, slight fruit, with a bit of earthy provence herbs. However, it's finish was weak, as if the wine was spent, not the raw, muscular finish I remember enjoying. A good value, but I waited too long.

January 18, 2012 - This wine is well anticipated from the reviews and the fact it is imported by Kermit Lynch. It has a bright cherry-raspberry nose with some green briar tones. The taste enters soft with some spice and herbs. A gradual expansion is followed by a sharp end. Overall good and varietal.

August 23, 2011 - I found this to be spicier and greener than expected. Also, I didn't quite expect as much heat as I got from it for must 13.5% abv. If I'd not expected something different, I may have enjoyed it more, as it's not a bad wine. I'd suggest giving it a little time to open up before drinking.
