Critic tasting note: "With ripe, juicy, red plum, black raspberry, pepper, earth and green olive notes, this full bodied, concentrated, beefy Southern Rhone has a lot to offer. With time, when the tannins soften and the wine evolves, this should offer a much better tasting experience. 93 Points" - 93/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

2010 Vintage Saved: 25-Apr-2019
Medium garnet. Stewed fruit with hint of herb. Black stewed fruit on palate with some leather, pronounced sweetness and spice. Fresh acidity and great balance. No barnyard. Finishes long. An elegant CDP. One of my all-time favorite wines. 97
