Not the same oomph as previously tested half-bottles, 2011, 2015; rather one-dimensional in fruit, acidity, tannins, finish.

Clear medium ruby color; dark fruit, leather, spices, and dust on the nose; tight high alcohol weak on mid palate (low on tannins and acidity) and finish is low in the mouth but rather long and medium-intense. I have to try more mature wines.

Flawless but lacks excitement. But this is a great vintage in Southern Rhone and they took advantage of that.
