All the fruit is still there...dark cherry for the most part. A little bit of acid. Tannin is gone. Nice long finish. Enjoyable to drink on it's own, don't know how well it would stand up to food.

Bold, powerful, but nicely balanced. Lots of taste notes expected from Rhone valley, mixture of dark and red fruit, licorice, spice. Very long finish. Good wine.

At the Lehman's to celebrate Fat Tuesday. Decanted for 3 hours. Brownish red in color, Berries and herbs on the nose. Initially on the palate there was some chalkiness that diminished over the evening. Brambly blackberries with some garrigue (rosemary-like). A good wine, but not quite at the level of many other 2007 CdPs I've had the pleasure to taste.

Really good. 80% Grenache, 12% Mourvèdre, 8% Syrah. Aged n concrete tanks. Vibrant. I liked this a lot. Soft tannins and acids, but plenty of fruit and garrigue. Easy to drink. Excellent QPR.

Beautiful, powerful wine. Dark fruit, plum, licorice, spice. Very balanced, alcohol nicely hidden. Highly recommended.
