Wow. Giving me a "moment" tonight. Reminds me of the good in this world as flavors unfurl. Olives and smoked meat on the nose. Shocks with the depth of fruit and sweetness on the palate. Loads of dark berries, cherries. Violet. Among other flavors. Stays elegant and balanced. Finish sails on. Stunning.

Dec 28th, 2016Gracefully matured with a bunch of the typical Northern Rhone aromas. Blackberry, Black Olive, Smoke. Still very vital acidity.
