Ruby with aromas of ripe fruits with pepper spice, simple wine. On the palate flavors of ripe black berry fruit with herb and big black pepper spice. Short finish, grippy tannins, ending with earthy spice.

Very nice - smooth with the typical French musty nose. Pleasant drink at a reasonable $9.99. A case buy at this price.

Some off putting bubble gum once opened, but more or less subsides to black raspberry fruit, with herb and leather, and a peppery finish. Well textured, a pretty good offering at this price.

Delightfully fruity and floral in this GSM blend (40/40/20%) with an almost garrigue-esque herb and spice note. On the palate the acid is biting, settling into red and black fruit layered with dust. Want a french everyday drinker? Look no further.

Violets, leather and berries on the nose. The mouthfeel is almost too dusty. The violets continue throughout, accompanied by a streak of bakers chocolate, a mulch-woodiness, and finishes with a touch of black berries. There's something animalistic going on here...not sure why. Definitely needs some breathing before it settles in. At least one hour of decanting, serve at 65°F.

Tour de France transfer stage 13 wine. Black cherry and a bit flabby. But pleasant. Congrats Sagan. Good spirit and so close. Go green.

Solid GSM. Nothing to write a tomb about but like one review said - goes with anything.
