Pretty nose, some potpourri and herbes de Provence. Fair amount of oak. Hefty but balanced.

Shows less energy than the Cotes du Rhone. Oak might be inhibiting the aromas.

Smells good. Smooth, lost freshness; tones of leather and coffee. Slightly better 4 yrs ago

Earth and leather, complex and extraordinary in flavor and nose. An extraordinary find and value, this is a great wine. It could be a more expensive Chateauneuf du Pape.

Nov 12th, 2017Wow. Flavorful Rhone Valley blend with peppery flavor and nose. Perfect choice with pizza or pasta. A great value at $30. Highly recommended.

Deep garnet color. It smells of boysenberry, anise, and leather. Plum and dark chocolate on the palate. It's a touch hot on the back end with 14.5% alcohol, but the finish is long and full with rich espresso and allspice.
