I love this wine.for second label Bordeaux at €21 it just does not get any better. Sure there's a whack od oak.but by Bordeaux standards it actually fades away and allows for a great deal of fruit to come out. It's juicy and concentrated and has a nice bacon fat fat favor at the Onset. Consumed after my black fruits and minerals. Medium concentration. Absolutely amazing for the price. — 7 years ago

This wine is hard to read. It was slightly corked,which was so slight that I was convinced it was some sort of syrah reduction funk. But it was cork. In the mouth however there was freshness which I know seems contradictory. Tons of fruit. Some effervescence. After being open for a couple of hours the wine got a little more musty with a tca note. Without this issue in another bottle I can easily imagine scoring it over a 9. — 7 years ago

9.0

2015 vintage. Natural wine making with no gas. An unpleasant note of reduction on opening and then red fruits, what one taster below describes as bramble berries seems accurate. Rose hips. possibly a deeper note of TCA or a touch of Brett - very faint and more of a palate thing than olfactory.. No new wood. Very nicely wound. 25 euros - Paris wine store. April 2018. — 7 years ago

Over the hill. 15% and blowing it hard . Confiture, caramel, old sweet Grenache notes. And sweet flavors. But heat mostly. Wine with character tho. Hard to actively dislike it. 2011. 18.5 euros in Paris wine store. — 7 years ago
