Red fruits, some spice and cola on the nose - tannins are supple and fruit has a pleasing medium weight, pepper, spice and and fleshy mascerated cherry -good and I would say 2- 3 years before this hits peak

Disappointed. Typical rhone nose, albeit with less pose than normal. Wine flat on the palate - just not much happening there at all. Have had better wines from this producer - this vintage is a let down.

Interesting wine. Perhaps too much whole bunch for my liking - not enough fruit presence but o doubt others will love it because of this. 2nd day - had really opened up and was far more balanced and drinkable. - in fact really enjoyable. Suggest vigorous decant before serving.

YUCK! Super young, but still I thought it was Not Good and not much potential in the future. Grenache was crushing all the other grapes strong not good raisin flavors. Trying to be classy but it seemed like a mess. Nail polish flavors coming through. I am a major Pass on this train-wreck.

Good bottle (have had a couple bad ones ). Very light. Cherry notes all through, light bitter tannin / stalk. Enjoyable.
