Opened up at a dinner party- didn't take formal notes. Fragrant on the nose. Drinking with silky elegance. Notes of dried violets, minerals, mesquite smoke, spice and blueberry fruit. Integrated fine tannins and medium acid. Nice presence on the finish. It went fast... Showing very well.

Northern Rhone visit April 30, 2014; 5/8/2014-5/15/2014: Winery visit- Aromas of mesquite smoke, blue florals, cured meat, blueberry and cassis- very pretty. Complexity continues on the palate with notes of black tea, violets, minerals, cassis and more blue fruit. Fine polished tannins and nicely fleshy through the middle. Medium acid. Full finish. Excellent.
