  Dark ruby garnet. Pronounced aromas of dark berry, ripe plums, mossy earth, vanilla, coffee, faded roses. Bright fruit on the palate with intense aromatic back notes, smooth tannins, light body, sweet acids. Lovely counterpoint between the complex aromas and the purity of fruit on the palate. Excellent with roasted Jerusalem artichokes and eggplant, tomato and feta. Long finish. 13% alcohol.

  This was great. Still drinking great and doesn’t seem to be an rush here. Some fruit but mostly earth/barnyard traditional northern Rhône on the nose.

  Nose of violets, jambon cru, fragrant plums, leather, with a top note of ash. Gripping dry fruit on the palate with sweet clear underlayer and a broad acid frame, aromatic note of sweet spice at the back with a salty mineral finish. Ever shifting colors and flavors. Lovely with middle eastern meatballs.

  Tight and takes a little while to open. Black plum, black pepper, smoke. Young but tasty. B+/B
