I was skeptical at first...inky black and 15.3 ABV, but the wine is well balanced with plenty of freshness and lift. Just the ticket with tonight's daube de boeuf.

This 2012 is full of blackberries, black cherries, and black currants. The tightly woven tannins and pleasant spice do add some balance to this wine. I suspect this wine can have broad appeal.

Delicious. HUGE, but delicious. Petit drives the flavors, but no hard edges.

I can't wait till it gets colder & I'm drinking this with a hearty stew.
