Deus Ex Machina Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

Thick, powerful and intense but a bit too stewed and alcoholic for me. You can sense the complexity and depth but just not in balance.

Je pourrais décrire cette bouteille comme une main de fer dans gant de velour, à la 1ere lampée le vin semble sévère mais il s’ouvre en bouche avec des touches de fumée, poivrée, herbacé, cassis c’est quand me complexe, velouté, belle acidité qui garde tout en place. In a great place right now!

One of the first vintages. Less concentrated, more acidity (reflects the vintage). Starting to show its secondary aromatics. Beautiful.

Dark and stormy on its way to third base
