day 2, aromatic fruit and herbs, still fruit forward with currant, strawberry, and other dried red berries, strong garrigue, olive notes, soft but firm tannins, long finish, big and balanced, great value.

Open for nearly 2 hr. Big earthy and herbal nose and palate. Very accessible now, with notes of olive and bitter chocolate. Quite complex, great value.

A take home from an amazing visit to CsJ and wonderful hospitality from Valentin Maurel. Young, but already showing nicely. Nose of spiced plum, strawberry jam and some acetate from the massive (albeit well integrated) 16% alcohol. Sweet attack from the extremely concentrated palate of black stone fruit. Slight grip from the tannins and a very long finish of christmas spices and tobacco. 92 with significant upside potential.

Juicy, creamy with plenty og Grenache present, plenty of local character - and some tannins at the end. Still, the wine is fundamentally happy, made for drinking, it has lightness and sweetnes and creates a certain longing in the restrained times. 91+ point-

오픈한 직후 달콤한 향이 폭발적으로 난다.
맛은 가볍고 부드럽다. 끝맛이 살짝 튀는느낌이있다.

Ripe style. Typical chateauneuf. Good composition.

Nez de pain d'épices, cerises noires, léger viandé... Nice acidity, very silky tannin, burgundy styled but hint of alcohol present in the finnish.
