Dark, almost black color. Pronounced new oak character. Vanilla cream on the nose, woody notes in the mid palate. Finished all pepper, pummeling tannin, and actually some pronounced acidity.

Bought 2. Paired with grilled lamb and veal. Can't beat this region for the best red wines ever

Whoa! Wish I had kept the other 5 bottles this long. Contender for the best Rasteau ever.

Lush forest floor, clove, and cherry tootsie roll pop! Deep flavor profile with years of growth potential!

At 15 yrs remarkably good. Soft and still has some cherry and berry quite nice!

Winner of tasting. Nice balance between fruit (raisin) and acid. Low tannin. Some funk.
