Ruby with ripe and rich fruit aromas. On the palate dark berry fruit flavors with good acidity as well as firm tannins. Bold tannins and a fine tension between the fruit and acidity, medium finish ending with sweet fruit.

2012 Vieilles Vignes. Soft but high acid. You can actuality smell the acids! High toned rock dust, lemon bars, and tart cherry on the shy nose. Lean but soft in the mouth, with crisp, fleeting tart cherry and pepper flavors. Got it at a restaurant that had good bistro cuisine but a crappy, random wine list.

Meaty, leathery nose, with some earth. Only medium weight on palate though. Excellent Rhone for $18.

Very Good Vaqueras / Cotes-Du-Rhone. One of the best wines of 2009; Full-bodied, delicious. (92)
