Vintage 2015 | Multi blend from Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Chenin Blanc. Lovely effort! I gave the wine 4 hours in decanter and afterwards it had a velvety taste. Good concentration, berries in smell. Paired with Côte de Boeuf from the grill, morels and sweet potato. The only point that I don’t like is high alcohol. With the food the wine gets a nice impression of chocolate and cacao. — 3 years ago
Tart fruit and lush body. The last sedimented glass is especially velvety and bright. — 3 years ago

Nez principalement sur les fruits noir, cuir, eucalyptus! En bouche, c’est très bien, les saveurs typique bordelais, fruits noirs, tabac, cuir, cèdre , roches mouillées. Le vin est quand même puissant, les tannins sont présents et le vin a un bel équilibre. Va tenir la route encore
Longtemps mais c’est très bon en ce
Moment. Excellent accord avec le boeuf Wellington. — 3 years ago
Day one was a bit rough. Lovely with cote de boeuf on day 2 — 4 years ago
16/20 (89/100) Узнаваемый каберне фран. Аромат черешни, ежевики, чёрного перца и ментола. Довольно легкий и кислотный с мягкими танинами. Забродившие чёрные ягоды во вкусе. Симпатично. — 5 years ago
Cherry/raspberry compote, blood orange rind, white pepper, pea tendrils, fennel, roses, haystack, cinnamon. Snapping acidity, light/medium bodied, juicy-satin texture, minimal smooth velvet tannin presence, fruity-peppery-floral finish. Funk forward, earthy but depth in fruit and balanced aromatics. Great balance of rusticity and refinement. Tons of character. — 6 years ago
Выпью один и даже пару бутылок подряд. Очень крутое, кока кола, клубнтка, вишня, клюква. Крутейшее вино. — 3 years ago
Pretty uncommon wine, unique find. Medium purple; on the nose, it has strong farm smells initially which do cease after a while and opens up to slight cherry, mushroom and some forest as well. On the pallet there is strong acidity, with light hint of red fruit, and an earthy finish. Cheers. — 3 years ago
This wine is deep ruby with intensely concentrated black fruit (blackberry, plum, cassis) aromas and flavors, along with black pepper, licorice, nutmeg, cedar, clove, wet earth, mushroom, and leather notes. Lovely complement to the Boeuf Bourguignon with strong acidity and tannins, high alcohol, and full body.

Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Les Olivets, Roger Sabin, S.Rhône, France. Vintage 2016. ABV 15%. — 3 years ago
Surprisingly very good despite the youth. Big lush body. Brilliant with the cote de boeuf. — 5 years ago
Клюква, брусника, красная смородина, лимонный сок, можжевельник, лавр, тонкая лакокраска, солоновато-горчащее послевкусие. Мутный полупрозрачный цвет, яркая кислотность, едва заметные танины. Натурально и нефильтровано, но при этом ягодно чисто, без говняшек и жижи. Просто, но живо и питко. Становится харизматичнее в процессе потребления. — 6 years ago
