More mature than the Boisrenard, I will give the Charvin the slight edge for its charming rusticity and earthy appeal

Scarlet tawny, mostly opaque. Great aged Grenache nose. Notes of plums, herbs de Provence, white pepper, a little raspberry and some dark soil. Rich and impactful in the mouth. Tannins are integrated, yielding a luscious finish. Top notch CdP!

Oct 21st, 2020Tawny color. Great herbal nose. Notes of red fruit, herbs de Provence, kirsch, some brown spice and a little sour cherry. Nicely balanced in the mouth. In a great drinking window, I don’t thing this gets any better with more age.
