  January 19, 2013 - I am neutral on this wine even though I am a fan of stinky, earthy wines. This one just may need some more time to allow the red fruit to come out with authority.

  August 31, 2012 - Dark purple color. Medium body. Very fragrant; lots going on for the tongue: roses, pepper, and blueberries against a background of soft tannins and decent acidity. Nice long finish. Lovely, pretty wine; good value.

  May 3, 2012 - Spicy, dark fruit, good tannins (but not so strong), a little nicely integrated wood in the end. Delicious quite typical southern france wine, with a pleasing texture. QPR ok.

  February 10, 2012 - Delicate earth and dusty strawberries atop a slab of slate. Astringent palate with a nice acidic balance, ripe raspeberries, and dry soil. Slight chemical bitterness on the finish. Give it some time.

  January 29, 2012 - Drank over two days. First day was a little closed in the nose but had nice cherry and smokey flavors as it opened. On the second day it was more balanced with a bit of nuttiness in the back but wasn't as interesting. A good quaffed for the price.
