House rose. Anything from Kermit Lynch is worth drinking. More ripe and mineral than most. — 5 years ago

Requires some decanting time to open up by a really nice wine from a great vintage that I would recommend. Oak, tar, dark fruit. — 8 months ago

We had this at our wedding reception in Cortona out of magnum. Ten in memory. 💒 🌹❤️🍷
The fruit/wine in 750ml is better tonight than the magnum we had in 2007. I love 80’s Bordeaux for the style of that decade and 12-13% ABV. Fruit is beyond still fresh & floral. 35 years later in bottle! For me, 86 was a seminal vintage. The wine is 94-95 on the palate. Storage on this secondary market purchase was perfect.
Ripe, floral and hints of pruny; blackberries, black raspberries, plum, raspberries, dark cherries, poached strawberries, rhubarb notes & hovering blue fruits. Perfect, sweet lead pencils for days, sandy top soil, powdery limestone, dry river stone, perfectly, softened, dark spice box, cigar box, sandalwood, American, moist tobacco, used leather, dry dates & figs, sun tea, cherry cola/licorice, black rich earth with dry leaves, dry herbs-sage/bay leaves, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanillin, dark, red, blue, purple bouquet, insane acidity, with stunning evolution/integration, excellent, balance, still intense structure with a polished finish for days…wire to wire beautiful with phenomenal length & polish that seems endless. This bottle would hold another 5 years.

perfect with palleron du boef by the beach in saint palais sur mer. — 9 months ago
I really regret opening this and wish I had kept racked, but the fruit was bright, almost jammy. Light on tannins, alcohol medium, very smooth. Also a great French red. — 2 years ago
What a crazy surprise this wine was. I was thinking it would be typical Grenache dominated Rhône wine that was light and fruity..not all the case!! What I got was powerhouse gigantic wine of incredible depth... love the grippy structure, just so many layers of strawberry jam, raspberry preserve , black olives and balsamic peppercorns...this is one of my favorites wines I’ve tried in awhile & it’s def not because of its smoothness. — 4 years ago
