Really full and concentrated right now, I have the feeling this could do better in a year or two. (Too bad I only bought one bottle--will have to go back and see if there are any more on the shelf so I can see how it gets with a year or two more in the cellar) Still, enjoyed the wine. It's bombastic--screams Rhone. Where is the rack of lamb I ordered?

First bottle of 6 and opened very early in its drinking window. This will get better but was still very enjoyable now. Tannins evident but not over powering they just give a bit of grip. Thickly textured with dark plum, dark fruits, graphite and lead.

Deep intense colour. The intensity follows through to the palette. Full bodied. Dry tannins balanced by good black fruit and herbs.

Closed even a day after opening and decanting. Deep dark fruit overwhelming. Not much balance or complexity.

Peppery dark fruit, rich but not ostentatious; hints of graphite, smooth but with a solid structure
