A promising, medium-bodied Rhone style blend. Nice nose of spice, earth, and slightly unripe fruit. There's a weedy, green, almost straight up bitter flavor that sticks on the back palate and intensifies with the finish. I've had some great wines from this producer...this just isn't one of them.

Nothing to rave about here. Very bland and somewhat tasteless. Even after 24 hrs it still had no wow factor. I will return the balance. You can pass on this one.

Nice, balanced and well integrated Rhone blend, a bit on the pricey side for $23
