Jun 20th, 2021Rich deep black cherry, blackberry, mint and maybe meat? on the nose. Very smooth, very very fine tannins. Earthy, mint, black tea, forest berries, cassis, delicious.

Aug 21st, 2021Musty pine nuts,
Dark, dank fruit leather, deep forest mushroom, oil cured olive, squid ink.
Overtones of honey, which seems familiar in older wines, the acid and oak playing a foxy role in the end of this wine.
Yum. Always worth holding on to the CDP’s for a couple of years.

Apr 27th, 2017Fruity but balanced. Starts out mellow but nice. A very gentle wine but one of the better example of châteaneuf de pape.
