This was a pleasant surprise. Still nice dark color with just a little bricking at the rim. Somewhat subdued nose of garrigue, blueberry and a little leathery earth. Really nice on the palate - blueberry and blackberry fruit, with a spicy, savory dusty finish. My guess is this was a little rustic when it was young but has mellowed into a nice wine.
Nice! ![[cheers.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/0/0ff9bfcdb0964982cd3240b6159868fbdf215b1a.gif "cheers"){kind=small}
This used to be a staple for me, but it’s been a while since I’ve bought or drunk any. Maybe I should remedy that…
I know their odd shaped bottle is charming and all that…but its a real annoyance for those with storage issues. I would not have expected this to age so well…
You never know…
