Another one from a perfect cellar I just purchased. Cork in perfect shape. Wine is a beautiful example of aged gigondas. Almost Bordeaux like to start then some soil’y Loire quality and now it’s almost barolo like with deep ripe red fruits, iodine and smoked earth. Really lovely. Hit me up for a preview on this cellar. Prices are stupid good as the wines are premium examples of stuff you just can’t find — 4 years ago

Roasted bell pepper, chunky, meaty grenache. Inky and chalky at the same time. Heavy flowers. Hot dusty tiles in summer time. There’s a lot to write home about, but not everything is in its right place. Good right now and maybe great in the near future. Time will tell. — 7 months ago
