A bit simple for Chateaneuf, but still lovely. A bit hard to decipher flavor as it's slightly closed. Maybe it needs more time.

Young and a bit tight. Not surprising. Great structure and fruit. Delish.

One of my all time favorites - visited here years ago.
Nice fruit flavor, smooth and very light tannins. Enjoyed with grilled/smoked beef tenderloin and salmon for New Years day dinner with family. A lovely gift from my neighbor a few years back for helping her out. Its nice to have good neighbors!

Amazing. I would buy a case. This is flavorful and complex. It's a great wine for drinking outside too, because it has a light body.

Rather one dimensional. A bit too sharp.
