Robe impénétrable, poupre-violette. À l’ouverture le bouquet de fruits noirs embaume, épices, poivre blanc, graphite et notes boisées de l’élevage (2 ans en barrique) sont encore présentes. Le jus est épais, velouté, les tanins présents sont de belle nature. Un vin encore dans sa jeunesse, à laisser en cave encore 5 ans avant s’ouvrir la prochaine et les autres sous 20 ans. Très beau vin, 93-94/100 à ce jour pour viser 95-96 à terme.

A lovely example of a Northern Rhône syrah in peak condition. Still has the red and black fruits and pepper, the tannins have soften but there is still good acidity and freshness. Wish I had a few more.

Light herb, pepper and leather tones, medium to soft tannins, lighter bodied syrah style with elegance and good length. Aromas of blackberries, pepper Needs some food to soften the tannins. I expect more earthy and leather tones and less fruit in the future.

Well made example of Northern Rhône. Delicate with well structured fruit, blackberries mostly. Finish isn’t short plus. All around very solid effort and well worth the price.

La Tablee: Celebratory Dinner (BYO) (26 Bridge Street, Brooklyn): Nicely done wine. Good smokey flavor. It's quite young. Still a fair amount of tannin. Very good though.
