Took an unopened bottle to Cavaillon for dinner. Initially the nose was very tight, but I knew I had a heck of a wine when I took the first sip. Great dark fruit, lots of spices, with firm but not harsh tannins. Had about 1/3 of the bottle, can’t wait to try some more today. Gorgeous wine!
Brought this to a dinner a few weeks back. Very ripely styled wine… a blockbuster loaded with rich, concentrated black fruit and silky tannins. But quite honestly, I struggled to get through more than a glass of it… just too juicy and rich for my palate at this stage of the game, but I can see so many others falling in love.
I am indeed falling in love!!!
