  Hazy notes from a couple of days ago. This was a little hot on the nose and palate, but not extremely so. But the high alcohol was also followed by quite ripe fruit and low acidity. On the downslope? A bad bottle? (B)

  This one did not hold up well and is on a downward trajectory. Drink up.

  Ripe raspberry fruit with a good dose of anise. Intense floral, violet aromas with dried herbal fruit and black pepper on the palate. Firm but silky tannins still remain. The wine opened considerably after about an hour. Hold for another 2 years.

  Black cherry, raspberry and red currants with a dash of black pepper. Good garrigue notes too. Long finish. Did not decant. Fruit was still fresh and tannins minimal.
