Last bottle of a 6-pack, P&P'd. It has lost its prior strawberry liqueur profile, and in its place is, surprisingly, red alpine currant, earth and some pink pepper. Very light tannins, this is very good on its own, and paired with braised beef short ribs! Drink up!

One hour decant. Garnet-violet in appearance. Getting kirsch, some lavender, and jammy raspberries and strawberries on the nose. Black cherries with some raspberries and black peppers on the palate. Medium bodied with a short-medium finish. Very easy going and straightforward wine to drink; neither complex nor rich, but it works.

First of a 6-pack, to go with burgers and fries with the children. Pure essence of strawberry liqueur with a hint of white pepper. Ready to drink, a touch sweet, and good on its own.
Solid Cotes du Rhone, paired well with beef & pasta dishes separately across different evenings. Strong red fruits, lacking depth, but enjoyable, food-friendly wine, particularly at the price point.

Rather dark in the glass. Nose of blackberries, black cherry, with hints of toast and mocha. Prominent acidity and fine tannins on the palate. Fresh and lively. Darker fruit profile than expected ont he palate. Moderate concentration, with the structure leading the fruit. Moderate finish. A fine CdR for the price, without the polish and concentration of the full cuvee.

Very clear colour - turning into violet. very good. nose: red and dark fruits, ripe and sweet. Some grilled meat notes. Not bad. taste: really everything in proper order; well mannered; ripe sweet fruits. Very balsamic with sharper and peppery finish. Very clean. Great drinkability, alcohol of 14.5% not visible very much.

Getting better but the fruit is light and i would like more pepper. Still a nice value under $10.
