Dark intense fruit- violet, dark cherry, iron, tangy. Very good depth but also just enough ripeness… on the right side of OTT but good balance. Very good.

Crushed herbs, black fruit, liquorice. A little short on flavour and acidity stands out little. Some more time?

Super-charged and tannic, with underlying freshness and great fruit.

Impressive! Massive dark fruit, very deep core, heat/warm vintage. I feel the alcohol, technically perfectly made. I struggled to pick the wine.. Rhone Valley at its best. This wine received a 100 point score from Robert Parker. 95+ points from me. To be honest, not my style of wine but wow it was good.

Wow... Depth, intensity, power and class. So balanced but with everything turned up to the max. Mocha, kirsch, blackberry, tar, liquorice and every other black fruit descriptor you can imagine. Tannin and acid flooding through the mid palate and finish. Length and length. What a fantastically made wine from an epic year. Thanks to the man that opened it. I end the way I opened.... Wow. 98+ points
