Brighter fruit than most frenchies, good mid pallet acid profile. Yummy and under $50

Perfume, herbs, leather, olives, and a sh*t ton of ripe cherries and raspberries. Might be a little boozy for some.

Alcohol shines through, but over all very solid.

Ass slappin' southern rhone. Heady nose of roasted fruits and spice. Big and ripe yet all kinds of structure to finish. I'd like to try this two or three years from now.

Chunky, young Grenache tannins. The fruit hiding in the corner. Could use some time for sure. Will never raise to the heights of the best wines of this, my favorite AOC. Disappointing especially given the vintage.

Paired nicely with a flatiron steak at Arlequin. Certainly wouldn't run out to buy more but did the job.

Was expecting to like this more, bit ethanol-ey.

Perfectly adequate. More of a compliment than it sounds.
