As a bit of background, I'll typically reach for a Pinot Noir on most nights. But, I've been trying some Rhone wines lately and really enjoying them. This is a great example. Really well balanced. 55% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 10% Carignan and 5% each of Mourve'dre and Cinsault. — 6 years ago

A nice wine but lacks body and depth. Organic a plus. Not too fruit-forward also a plus.

A nice blend consumed with a prime rib dinner. A little young and not integrated well but very good at this stage. Some time in the bottle would make this vintage an excellent choice.

Had the '09 two nights ago and it was great. It also needed a couple hours
