  Wonderful Rhone red, super vibrant (almost puckering) with a quick blast of sweet red fruit up front. That acidity carries through the entire length. Undergrowth and mushroom are uncovered after a few minutes of air. Nice QPR.

  surprisingly good. i'd been avoiding opening this because of mediocre experiences at this price point from recent rhone selections i've purchased. but this is really a pleasant surprise, true to its origin, and could be easily confused with a wine 2-3 times its price.
  
  color: slightly paler garnet/ruby
  nose: mineral, licorice, black pepper, dark cherry
  palate: spice, smoke, dark cherry, medium tannin, finish medium
  
  this is immediately after decanting with just some swirling. perhaps it will be even better in an hour?

  Bright red. Spicy and vibrant nose. Red fruit, touch of black pepper in the middle palate. Not a big wine, but pleasant and good QPR.
