  At peak !! Like a baby Châteauneuf-du-Pape !!
  Perfect cork, easily removed. Dark color with medium clarity. Consumed at dinner with friends. Aromas of black cherry with a hint of licorice. Flavors of black cherry, fig, blackberry, black pepper, glycerin, and leather with a medium to long fatty finish. A very balanced flavorful blend of 40% Mourvèdre, 30% Syrah, and 30% Grenache reminiscent of Château de Beaucastel. I only wish I had more remaining in my cellar.

  Blend of Mourvedre 40%, Syrah 30%, and Grenache 30%. The Mourvedre seemed to dominate. Didn't evolve much in the glass. Restrained and slightly sharp. Beyond its prime?

  Lots of deep berry fruits in the nose and flavor, blackberries, black raspberries, dried plums, licorice, and spice. Medium to long finish.

  Fading a bit, or at least that bottle was. Blueberry and damp earth, not up to par. Still good, just not up to LC standards.

  Really nice fruit in this one. Blueberry flavors with some spice. Very tasty. Too bad it's my last bottle.
