Light spices, fresh pepper and little unripe cherries are the core of the nose, whereas is the freshness and light structure to characterise the mouth that finish with fruity persistence. It lacks a little of complexity that surely will acquire within the years.

Wow! This is my #31 ChdP but first so unique. The bottle back label says: dark cherries, prunes and spices. I agree completely. They show in smell and taste. What else? A lot of herbs. In smell and taste. It sounds simple, but this juice is full of balance, harmony and structure. Definitely on the sweet side, but vivid acidity and grippy tannins make the difference. Very long finish with sweet fruits and black pepper. Very juicy, addictive, and powerful. It's great for connaisseur and supermarket wine drinkers 23€
2018 got 92 points according to the WA Vintage Guide Outstanding. Early maturing and accessible.

Bottle No. 01898. 100% Grenache I believe, and seemingly losing vibrancy. 14.5% ABV, and seamless.

Joyful Grenache, generous wine. Joie de vivre, open, balanced, local, yet tannins and structure is here --- things to come. 92+
