Ganska sval upplevelse med en elegant rödbärighet. Betydligt mer drickbart nu än -13. Björnbär och garrigue. — 8 years ago
Très belle Syrah, épicée, garrigue, olive noire, au nez.
En bouche beaucoup d'élégance, une finale longue.
Très beau vin que l'on prend beaucoup de plaisir à déguster dès aujourd'hui mais qui doit être intéressant à laisser vieillir, seul bémol le prix! — 10 years ago

An earth driven nose with overtones of garrigue. This wine was terroir driven vs fruit driven. Compared to the other vintages I found this wine benefited the least from air. — 11 years ago

Brambles, garrigue. Lovely already. 2015 is a vintage to go deep on CdP. — 8 years ago
Very nice Rhone-style blend -- Syrah / Carignan / Grenache. Really enjoying with Christmas celebration! — 9 years ago
Deep baked dark fruit on the nose. Bloody and jammy in the mouth with lots of garrigue and afternotes of charred meat. A bit of green olive. — 10 years ago
Garrigue herbs, floral notes and warm fruits with a touch of licorice. Great structure and medium tannins will allow for good aging. The 2011 vintage is more herbaceous and less fruit-forward than is past years, and still too young - took an age of decanting to get it to shine. Dont open yet - hold. Lots of potential. — 11 years ago
Good cdp, this 2014 is a lighter cuvee, others commented it is burgundian in style and I agree.
Nice raspberry palate, minerality with harmonized garrigue, good tannins. Great complement to food, it's a better wine with food. The garrigue blew off day 2-3 which I miss. A PNP is OK with this wine. — 8 years ago
Cherry liqueur, blackberry compote, garrigue, dried tarragon, violets, green peppercorns, wet stones, clay. Vibrant rounded acidity, medium-full bodied, juicy-satin texture, mild rough velvet tannins, long herbal, fruity finish. Balanced fruit, earthy notes, wonderfully herbal on the palate. This one will be special with you extended cellaring time. Decanting recommended. — 8 years ago
Nose: all the aromatic flavours of excellent Grenache first - then loads of spiciness, garrigue, elegant oak, roasted meat, black fruit (black currant, cherries)
Palate: very very fine and silky tannins, medium to high body, red/black fruit, nice oak, great complexity
