Outstanding. Can't do much better; a particularly good value.

Unctuous, velvety and inky, this is a great wine for this time of year. Bramble, charcoal. cloves, licorice and all kinds of spices. Complex and smooth. In your face, but in a pleasant way.

2012 - rich, deep, opulent, Rhône. Have to be in the mood for this inky red.

Best with food. Needs some time to open up. Lots of funk, dark fruit, and earth on this one. Decent food wine.

A truly fabulous Christmas surprise! Hints of cherry and spice make this a great compliment to prime rib!
