  There’s a nice background of tertiary development to add depth and complexity to the still lively fruit. No rush and will probably improve but drinking well now. 4

  3rd time lucky! After 2 faulty bottles relieved to get a good one. Drinking well but more time needed for tertiary development so will leave the last bottle for a couple of years. Bright fruit, touch of blood and iron and nice long finish. 4-

  Teinte carmin tuilée, très beau nez evolué, complexité, maturité et fraîcheur, sensation de sucrosité a l’attaque contreblancée par une acidité de caractère: ah la belle syrah!! Aromes de fruits macérés, de fin cuir, sous-bois et pot pourri!

  Still young. A crowd pleaser. Pleasant, and really smooth and pure, but so far lacking depth and complexity. Maybe age will deepen it.

  Loved it. against the Chateau D'ampuis it's refreshing floral and elegant.Very balanced. I loved it. A counterattack to wines that spend 40 months in oak etc.
