Lucious dark fruit, with prune-like notes and a lot of maquis herbs. — 11 years ago
Geek alert: mountain red but from an area in north never heard of-Ivrea? A combo of varietals incl I think 1% nigrette. Love this stuff-but love Carema too. Rosenthal import — 11 years ago
Jaune clair
Nez terpénique et cire pétrole tu comme un riesling
Bouche ample et grasse avec une grande maturité mais l âge equilibre le vin.
Finale dense avec des notes de citron confit et d alcool mais avec une certaine profondeur
Beau vin qui a gagné avec le temps on imaginerait bien ce style de vin sur un chateauneuf — 8 years ago
Very powerfull almost too heavy, but very tasty southern rhone wine — 9 years ago
Slightly muted but very fruity nose full of red raspberry, cherry, plum and blackberry. The deep color deceives the delightfully juicy, fresh and fruity palate. Juicy flavors of black raspberry, red raspberry and black cherry leads to big, fresh acidity with a touch of earthiness and tannin. The finish is long, fruity and a little earthy. — 9 years ago

Delicious! — 10 years ago
There aren't many wines that make me say "wow!" On the first taste. Black fruit and warm baking spices on the nose with honey/toffee notes. Palate is velvety pleasure with plum, leather, and sweet cappuccino coffee. This is a rich and beautiful wine at a perfect point in its development. — 11 years ago
Surprising burst of aromatics. Surprising as it was much more retrained last month. I love how wines evolve. The mouth is more pronounced and a slight bit of white pepper picante with boisterous cherry. Lively bit of oak but not too much. Drink up or age. — 11 years ago
A delicate Nebbiolo. Good flavor. — 11 years ago

Reading the reviews, this appears to be a somewhat divisive wine. But I come down squarely in the fan camp, delicious and surprising. Profound aroma. Not quite at the level of Terroir AlLimit, but about $125 cheaper at Bar Isabel and a fine substitute. — 7 years ago
