Hazy purple glou-glou! Watermelon Jolly Rancher was the primary flavor, along with some strawberry, cherry, pomegranate, and just a hint of orange peel. A well-made wine that is easy to enjoy chilled or not. 100% Valdiguié. 3/12/23. — 2 years ago

N: Watermelon Jolly Rancher nose, some herbal qualities around the edges.
P: Watermelons, Strawberries, lil’ bit o’ cherry. Interesting Garnacha varietal, little bit of frizzante going in. Very light soil thing going on both nose and palate.
Highly refreshing. Interesting mouthfeel, not quite polished.
No added sulfites. The natty crowd should drink up. — 2 years ago

1hr in decanter. Cherry jolly rancher. With leather and hint of tar. Moderate tannins. Last drank about 9 months ago and like more. Would rate higher but ends a bit early. — 5 years ago

Tart cherry lingers in the nose.

A touch of citrus, mingling with blueberry applesauce pie, jolly rancher blue, goose berry.
Light tannins with a strong, acidic backbone, much like a candidate running for an office..

Baf food pairing (a rich lentil stew) made this initially come off as really flat. On the nose: soft wild strawberry, baking spice, jolly rancher. On the palate: ok acidity to start, a touch flat, mothball, then some grapeseed bitterness, and a very soft, very finely grained tannin. Very nice finish. This needs time, and a better food pairing. — 4 years ago

The nose reveals; sour lemons, green apple skin, green apple Jolly Rancher, lime zest to candy, pineapple juice, underripe green melon, white peach, honeysuckle, some fresh, green herbs, white spices, cream, notes of melted butter, caramel notes, hints of vanillin, cream, some candle wax, steely flintiness, saline, sea fossils, powdery beautiful, chalkiness, limestone minerals, grey volcanics, fruit blossoms, spring flowers, jasmine & yellow florals.

The body is; a touch waxy, full, rich, round, lush & gorgeous. Great viscosity, tangy & sour lemons, green apple skin, green apple Jolly Rancher, lime zest to candy, pineapple juice, underripe green melon, white peach, honeysuckle, honeycombs, some fresh, green herbs, white spices, caramel notes, hints of vanillin, cream, steely, flintiness, white spices, mint, saline, sea fossils, powdery chalkiness, limestone minerals, grey volcanics, river stones, tree bark w/ just a touch of sap, fruit blossoms, spring flowers, jasmine & yellow florals. The acidity is like a rushing, fresh water Colorado river. The long; gorgeous, sexy, polished, elegant, finely balanced finish is excellent wire to wire and persists minutes.

Beautiful wine & vintage. It’s about 3-5 years away from 94 & has 10-15 years of good drinking ahead. Properly stored of course.

Quite good with Lamb Chopper harder white cheese & Rustic Bakery Rosemary & Olive Oil Organic Flatbread & the Jasper Hill Willoughby soft white cheese with the Firehook flatbread crackers.
