B /B+ ripe fruit on the nose. On the plate very approachable and balanced. Medium bodies plus. Red fruit and earth. Long legs in the glass and high alcohol. Medium tannins and a long peppery finish. It improves over time. Upon opening its was a much lighter body and was unremarkable. More character after an hour open in the bottle.

Still young and vibrant, wonderful bright color, needs a bit of air but the nose is strong from the minute the cork is pulled. Delicious, and Helens description covers it well

Excellent Côtes du Rhône. Classic medium weight with dark fruits, a silky feel and a slight hue of caramel. Great buy.
