Roses in the aromas and on the palate. Wonderful earthy notes, currants, kirsch, and iodine, too. Well appointed. With some time, the wine took on a vegetal note like a Loire cab franc. Not a drawback at all.

2010. Slight charcuterie and meat, silky tannin, olive tapenade, slightly bloody, roses. Good structure and acid.

The 2008s really are drinking well right now. This has the grip and and lushness of a #coterotie but also is so elegant and pretty. Great typicity. #louisbarruol

Roasted meats and garrigue. Otherwise not so complex. Nice tannins but wished for longer finish.
