Nose is bananas complex. Nose is a 10.0. Wow. Herbs, spice, granite just so deep. Wow. Palate is so silky. Just incredible. So fresh. Supple and sweet.

Classic in style. The richness of the vintage comes though. Balanced. Long. And delicious. Needs time but drinking great now. No need to decant

Just terrific! I hesitate to post how good these wines are because they are still reasonably priced for what they deliver. But I can’t help but praise them. Bravo.

Nuanced and carries the cooler vintage profile well. Spiced, lovely red fruits, bright acidity. I like the spine it has. Raspberry and cherry tones, red meat, green peppercorn, smoke, resinous herbs, leather and granite. Tannins are textural but never drying.

This 2010 is stunning. A spring rain in Provence. What? Yep. Lavender on the nose, a touch of tar. Wow.

Sickness. Campfire, big berry fruit. Insane purity. Spice and granite. Stunning aromas. World class. Flowers. Opulent yet mineral. Super finish. Dense and velvety. Juicy and so complex. Young. Elegant. Just stunning. My score could go up with 5-10 years.

Youthful purple. Deeply perfumed, mineral-tinged aromas of blackberry, boysenberry and violet, joined by an exotic spicy nuance that builds in the glass. Deep, alluringly sweet dark berry preserve, floral pastille and star anise flavors are lifted by juicy acidity and a cracked pepper quality that emerges with air. Focused and seductively sweet on the tannic finish, which shows superb clarity and outstanding floral-driven persistence. This rich yet vibrant wine is shaping up to be a highlight of this stellar vintage. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, Apr 2017)
