Still relatively youthful with a medium-dark purple color, as @Tom Casagrande said three years ago, ripe vintage, soft tannins, relatively lower acidity, lingering finish, I’d guess this is at or near maturity (so I need to drink up the remaining bottles in the next few years, overall solid Moulin-a-Vent!!
(Oh, and this was in a box with the final 3 bottles I purchased of 1983 Chateau Fonsalette “Cuvée Syrah”, which I’ll let stand up for a while to settle the apparent copious sediment!) — 24 days ago

2023 vintage. Medium-medium heavy body. Old-school RRV swill that eschews the sweetness that crept into the area during the Williams-Selyem heyday/culty scores of the mid-80's to mid-90's. Big tea, earth, light mud, restrained cherry and plum. Structure. Fruit. Balance. No sizzle, all steak. Blind tasting this, you'd be hella pressed to call this as being from RRV. Tastes like it's got 8-10 years of age on it already as a new release. You could sock this away for an easy 15-spot if you're that disciplined, unorganized or behind on opening other stuff. One of the best new domestic pinots tasted in the last few years. P.S...tasted the 2023 MacIntyre (the one that gets all the scores/pub) right after this. It was nice. A new school nice at 9.3. I'll take this any day that ends in "y" instead. You can have my MacIntyre allocation. 3.25.26. — 6 months ago

2020 vintage. Lean and mean and mineralesque. Light-medium body. Will try to double park a bottle of this and excavate in 7-8 years. Beautiful example of this style. 4.13.23. — 3 years ago
