This is very nice and has great varietal character. With salmon and roasted potatoes this was on fire. Cool mourvedre fruit, black pepper, saddle leather. Drinking like a well-aged Bandol. I dig this--like all Cebene wines-and would definitely seek out again in a more up to date vintage.

Dusky ruby. Coffee, chocolate, black cherry, violets. Full bodied sweet dark berry core with a nice acid tail, smooth tannins at the back, lingering acid finish. Good with barbecued ribs. 50 + 16 + 16 + 8.

Dunkles Lila-Rot Um einiges dichter als bei der letzten Begegnung. Schwarzkirschig,Brombeeren,würzig,Hauch Lakritze. Dicht,voller Körper,satt,fleischig,viel Grip,samtig,gute Tiefe,zwischendurch leicht alkoholisch. Mittellanger leicht prägend-dunkelfruchtiger Abgang Immer noch sehr jung,warscheinlich noch mehr Potential.

Nice dusty red berry and floral nose. Many in my family did not enjoy it as they thought it was too acidic and floral. I on the other hand enjoy this will be and like the lively palate and mix of fruit, earth, and bright floral accents.

This was very nice - easy to drink, slightly floral. Complemented food very well.
