Well balanced, nice mix of savory fruits (cassis) and earthy spice. Integrated tannins. Smooth and easy drinking if you want it but enough there to spend some time with it. Got more interesting after being open 30 minutes to an hour. Good now, feels like it'll hold up well at 10 years too.

Needs air. Better after half an hour, quite tight at first. After, a very nice versatile wine, particularly for the price. Classic Southern Rhone flavors. Genuine bargain, could likely stand a couple of years of aging.
