Pale lost some color. Stunning. Dried prune plums. Plenty tannins left. Violets. Dried Orange Peel. Cloves. Hint of Cinnamon. Drink within 15 - 30 minutes as it falls apart with time. A treat. A stunner really amazing.

Decent #châteauneufdupape but not much depth on the nose and flat on the finish.

Rustic style with lots of earth. Solid fruit and tannins. Bit of heat. Could use time.

Persistent fruits with licorice, earthy hints. Well rounded, mid palate is generous with enjoyable tannins.
