Punchy blackfruit, full-bodied, dry, pleasant finish. Nice, but no distinguishing features. Not bad at $24 CAD. — 4 years ago
Color of dark purple with dark ruby and a bit brown hue. Nose is pretty nice with oak, black cherry, vanilla, aldehyde, and tobacco leave. Taste is silky yet dry, just a tiny bit sweet, with soft tannins, some more dark fruits like cherry notes, some more vanilla, and tasty. Aftertaste shows milky mouthfeel, some more tasty note, and addition of mineral and rustic metal note. Pretty good find. — 5 years ago
This is awesome. Tons of strawberry and peach on the nose with the little bit of herb. I was worried that the palate would be overly sweet, but it is absolutely not. Beautifully balanced. Probably my favorite rose so far — 6 years ago
A really good red blend. It's just the right amount of dry. The flavor in your mouth afterwards is like the wine walked through with its boots on. Maybe a little bitter. — 6 years ago
Notes of unripened peach, lilac and fresh earth. Great rose — 8 years ago
Had with oysters and was divine. Great lees undertone and extremely aromatic, hitting all the right notes. Well played, sir. — 9 years ago
Mukavan kuiva, kirpsakka ja kuitenkin vähän mausteisen lämmin, ei jätä vahvaa jälkimakua eli suu jää mukavan "puhtaaksi" viinin jäljiltä, ja sopii siten hyvin ruoan kanssa. Itsenään tosin ehkä sitten vähän "vaisu" tuon jälkimaun osalta. — 4 years ago

Rich, luscious berries in this not overly heavy wine. Very smooth. First bottle was ready to go, but second bottle required time to open up. — 6 years ago

This pops with vibrant strawberry and kirsch, but continues reverberating with incense, citrus peel, damp chalk, and licorice. I would happily spend $15 again, but this gives me the confidence to trade up to Halos Gigondas or Chateauneuf du Pape the next time around.
Finally trying this label... Considering the esteem to which I hold Philippe Cambie and my love for Grenache, it's been a long time coming. Cambie, along with a Michel Gassier, produce Grenache-focused bottlings from nearly all the Southern Rhone AOCs under the Halos de Jupiter label. To Cambie, Grenache is the king of all grapes, thus the comparison to Jupiter (Zeus in Greek), forming the basis of the label. The halo symbolizes the appellations that best express the personality of Grenache. http://www.philippecambie.com/en/les-halos-de-jupiter/ — 9 years ago
God vin prøve til mat nestegang — 4 years ago
Nästan ren Grenache (3% mouvedre) från Costières de Nîmes. Den 23:e årgången från denna vingård och den bästa enligt vinmakaren. Riktigt spänstig. Smakrik med druvtypiska drag som viol, garrigue, pastil, lakrits, bärkompott. Silkig med torrt sandkornigt avslut. Lite varmare i stilen än CdP eller Gidondas-motsvarigheter. Den sydrhônska hettan snuddar på bristningsgränsen kanske, men bara nästan. Supergod. — 4 years ago
