Cooked plums and black cherry, savory meat, garrigue, black pepper, warm spices, game. Raw and vivacious tannin are pronounced and add to the rustic appeal of this. Great expression of Vacqueyras. This scratches your S. Rhône itch at a great price

Very complex. Could go another 4 years in the bottle.

In a gorgeous place right now. Light to medium bodied. Leathery and soft but still with red fruit nuances and hints of chocolate riding on a supple tannin texture. Definitely better than the last bottle I opened a few years ago.

It's okay -- no wow factor, but thick not fruity with some mid tongue tannins.
