Better than last bottle I had in 10/2022. Dark red color. Black tea, cranberry, tart cherry and baking spice on the nose. medium body, medium+ acidity, low tannins and long finish with great persistence. Bright cherry / cranberry with touch of black tea on palate. 92+/-

Excellent. A reminder that CdR Villages remains a pool of great values. No notes, but it simply is everything you'd want, dark fruits, garrigue, nice depth with a pleasing warmth.
Could sell for 2x+ the $16 USD I paid and be a solid deal. Wow, another one I could have multiples of and be happy. Alas, it was the only bottle.

Beautiful red and dark berries and garrigue. Fresh acidity and round tannin with still a pleasant bite.
