Mid to deep crimson in colour. Notes of red cherry, raspberry and other red fruits together with a charcoal smoky note. The palate is medium plus bodied with those same savoury red fruits finishing with rather coarse tannins. I was expecting more given how good the producer is. “Baby Beaucastel “ as it is known. Will have the next in a year or two. Tasted 78 weeks later on 5th February 2022 with similar notes. A bit square sided.

Great bottle of Rhône wine. Nice balance of acidity and fruit. Delicious with food.

Currant jam, black pepper. Hot finish. Baby CdP, nice with chorizo risotto.

2015v. Deep violet color. Lots of sun-drenched black cherry, dark plum, and a little toasty brown sugar from the oak. Not the most complex flavors, but everything is very well integrated. The tannin structure is the most notably quality of the wine: they coat your mouth, add a chewy quality, and slowly melt during a very long finish. 14% ABV.
