9.0

A behemoth of a wine, super concentrated, pretty oaky, stewed fruits. Took a long time to open up.

9.4

At 42% grenache, 24% mourvedre, 21% syrah, 8% counoise, and 5% roussanne, this one is still a bit too young for my tastes (and still merits a 9.4). Give it a couple of more years in bottle or decant it for 2-3 hours. Still awesome, though!
