It’s too soon to be opening a 2019. But I did it anyway. Very youthful, loads of dark fruit, baking chocolate, leather, truffle, hint of smoke. Tannins are tight, need probably 2+ years from now to be drinking well. Tastes a little hard press-y. But overall a nice wine, good Northern Rhône character.

Big and bold, but very polished. Massive tannins that are too much without food. Needs time - best on day 3.
