A bit dry, then sweet. Black fruits. Pepper. Complexity. Concentrated, fruity and spicy. It would be good to keep it for long. Domaine les Grands Bois Rasteau Cuvee Marc 16 @3300, Umem JH, 231223-240126 — 4 months ago

So I guess this is a Gamay from the Rhône? Didn’t know such a thing existed but this is the best “Rhône” I’ve had in a long time - mostly bc it’s a Beaujolais through and through - classic muddy/cloudy consistency, intense fruit on the nose. Only issue is that it’s still very sparkly on the palate, so definitely needs a few more years. Or a very long decant. Tons of potential — 4 months ago
Tart, rich fruit with a peppery, earthy body. Very nice. — 4 months ago

Absolutely sublime, redfruits, still shows lovely structure, suave flavors and super long, lingering finish, this is truly an amazing Rhône Syrah, one of the best I’ve ever had!! Fortunately I won the cork lottery on this bottle!! — 10 hours ago
