Such a balanced and fine Ventoux that juggles fresh and serious elements. The ripping heat of the 2016 growing season created a lot of tired wines in this region...but this isn’t one. As good as everyday Grenache can be.

This is a wine that is better paired with food, and even then, not even a strip loin could save it. Too much berries, and a bit of acid that overpowers the finish.

Monster for the price. Nice tannins, but low on acidity. But still fairly balanced. Might become the new table wine for a Tuesday night.

Defintely a good wine. Possibly needed to decant for a while longer. Still a bit tight.
