Explosive floral bouquet sets the stage for the velvet sensuality of this wine. I Lavender scented dark fruit with a hint of tobacco in a lithe, supple expression.

A St. Joseph with a generous vanilla perfume that makes it feel like a Côte Rôtie. Plush with flavor with a acidity that starts showing on day two, what a wonderful wine esp for its price.

Great nose, some said the palate didn't deliver but I thought it made for an easy drinking red. Tannins were up there.
