Unassuming. Strict, quiet, barely there aromas of gunpowder, white flowers, blanched almonds. The pale hay colors suggest this is light and easy. It’s not.
It’s 14.5% - fatty oily, type A introvert of a wine.
Slightly hot, we get yellow peach, jasmine, almond. Drink this at cellar temp and drink slow, as she charges quick. — 3 years ago
Tour d’Argent. Tawny, heavy color in the glass. The Somm smiles. I smile. The room smiles. This is killer juice that opens with a fragrant bouquet of ripe bing cherries, earthly spice, some sois bois, and some Asian spice. I’ve had this wine probably 10+ times and this is easily the best of them. Silky smooth. The nose is sexual. Killer juice. Worth the price. — 5 years ago
Delicious. It’s mostly Mourvèdre but it’s different than a Bandol in the it’s seems more open and a bit less structured. Lots of garrigue/roasted herbs/iodine on the nose. Dark berries underneath. Concentrated and very savory in the mouth. Very clingy and long. A fair amount of relatively soft tannin, with acids on the lowish side. Really good value, if you can find it.
UPDATE: Night 2 the palate is showing less savory and way more deep fruit. That suggests to me that this needs air of drink in the short term and also will age for a few years. — 10 months ago
