92 Points

Saturday, November 18, 2023 - Expressive nose as we know it from the Rayas stable, with strawberry and cinnamon spice. Surprisingly translucent color pointing to a very light wine. The palate confirms it. Light and even a touch acidic. 13.5% Alc. This could have benefitted from some more hanging time. LOL, I thought that I would never write such a verdict for a Southern Rhone wine. Nose 94, palate 90
