Spicy, very complex, lifting, good nerve, from an extremely diverse Rhone varietal field blend

Really interesting wine from a field blend of Rhone varieties. Very floral aromatics.

Perhaps some more time in bottle will help. Lacks some of the funky cedar, eucalyptus nuance of the earlier vintage (2009?).

A revelation. Wisteria, gardenias, and lilies hang over meaty berries and subtle minerals, the flowers fade to herbs and the berries open to blood orange then... Bottle's done.
