Quite lovely. Typical Janasse aroma. Ready to drink. No signs of a closing drinking window yet. Good experience for a 7 year old 10 € wine. Was my last one. Still have some 09 / 10 in my cellar.

Popped and poured, then re-tasted over the course of a few hours. Hot, big, flabby wine. Lots of intense black fruit that goes into prune territory. Big spices too, but not a lot of tannin or acidity. Disappointing wine, without much going for it.

Popper and poured. This is drinking really well right now and I think it's a great representative of what I look for when drinking wines from this region. Ripe brambles and garrigue right out of the gate. Nice finish. Nothing seems over the top right now and everything is in it's place. I thought it paired well with pork butt, Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes. It doesn't pretend to be anything it's not and more than delivers the goods. Wish I had more to drink in the near term.

Much better than last time, more flavor and aroma. Held up well for 2 days.
