  10/8/2020 - WilliamMP Does not like this wine: 87 Points

  N. Rhône trying to be S. Rhône? Over ripe, v high extract. Knew i should have listened to Jancis, 15p, over RP, 93p.
  
  N: Over ripe, almost sweet black cherries, ripe plum, present oak, raspberries & cream. Extremely subtle earthy herb.
  
  P: Full, ripe, unnatural black fruit attack. Still old world in style - fruit is dark, slightly earthy, not sweet. Some garrigue, top soil & leather, with a slab of OTT creamy toasty oak. Med sandy tan & acid fail to balance well.
  
  F: Boozy, toasted oak, dirt. Meh.

  Served by the glass. A masculine, robust and resounding wine dominated by a strong tannic charge from the wood in the mouth and by strong meaty notes on the nose. In its style is not bad but being so direct do not expect elegance or complexity here. Sorry.
  
  Servido por copas. Un vino masculino, robusto y rotundo dominado por una fuerte carga tánica procedente de la madera en boca y por unos fuertes recuerdos cárnicos en nariz. En su estilo no está mal pero al ser tan directo no esperes ni elegancia ni complejidad aquí.
