Dark tawny color, barely translucent. Impactful red fruit nose. Notes of raspberries, herbs de Provence, red cherries, pepper and some freshly cut wood. Lots going on in the mouth. Big fruit, still powerful acidity and a lengthy finish. Blind you might guess this as red burg, which is the norm for Charvin. Great stuff.

This shows the best of Chateuneuf du Pape, framed in elegance. The nose draws you in with herbs and red fruit. This carries through on the palate along with smoked meats and some some pronounced tannins, and the finish is long
