January 29, 2022 - Dark red, almost brown colour. On the nose: cherries, plum, leather. On the palate: cacao, dark red cherries, spiciness/pepper. A little bit of heat, gives it just that little kick. Great length. A modern C9dP, but something I enjoy quite a lot. At a great drinking spot at the moment, cannot imagine this getting a better.

December 5, 2021 - Solid CdP but not worth the price compared to other vineyards. Seems more like a wealthy Cotes de Rhone. Don't sense the complexity I expected.

November 18, 2021 - Only lightly aromatic of blackberry preserves, herb switches and balsamic. Medium-full bodied and quite ripe. This is high on body/richness but low on aromatics and complexity. Drink now-2025 91

October 1, 2021 - Fabulous (Grenache-based) nose, and fairly light on its feet considering the 15.5 degrees. Definitely a long finish, although a tad short at the end. We have one more bottle in the cellar (and fortunately many more of the same vintage Chaupin) and I’m thinking we should drink this relatively soon.

October 1, 2021 - Crimson in color. 15.5% ABV. Predominantly Grenache with Syrah and Mourvedre as well. Sensational nose of sweet red fruits, garrigue and licorice. Medium to full bodied with tremendous acidity. Rich, concentrated and well balanced. Cherry cordial, kirsch liqueur, iron and roasted herbs on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish. Definitely modern in style but if that is your thing you will adore this wine. Best over the next 2-4 years.
