Better than I recall previous experience, which must have been from an off bottle. Meaty, iron nose with some spice, medium weight mid palate. Finish gives the impression of sweet ripe cherries. Drinking much better than I anticipated.

Was fine at cellar temperature. But at room temperature vegetable notes and some mustiness started to poke through. Might be a flawed bottle, but not sure. Not rating it as flawed since it was fairly enjoyable at cellar temp.

Nose is cherry with salty minerals. Relatively light mid palate, with cured meats and blood. Borders on slightly vegetal toward the finish, but not overwhelming.

(DOMAINE COURBIS ST. JOSEPH) #3; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-very modern, Transformer nose from fruity(dark plum) to spearmint gum to asparagus; TASTE-a little lighter than I hoped for, some nice flavors (nice black pepper, eucalyptus & old leather shoe), but it disappears; flavor is very thin; ; RP-90; GV-86

Deep red. Smoky black fruit, lots of perfume. Very fleshy with a long sweeter finish.
