Lovely cool vintage St.-Joseph-ish style; black olive, sage & lavender layered over blueberries and bitter cherries. Bright and fresh, but you can find just as good for way less in the northern Rhône. — 10 years ago

Unfined, unfiltered 2014 vintage.
Chamaleontic, funky drop.
Nose dominated by black olives in brine, preserved plum, soy sauce, balsamic, black forest fruits, cinnamon, clove, bay leaf.
Elegant palate, tannin in place and refreshing acidity with a good length.
Barossa meets the Rhone.
Amusing, intriguing and delicious.
