A super tasty and bright sparkley! — 3 months ago
Nose has deep blackberry fruit and a bit of garrigue-y earthy notes, a little iodine. Deeply rich in the mouth. The fruit has a very slight pruny element but does not detract. In the finish, however, the peppery heat of the alcohol (only a stated 14.5%) makes a prominent appearance. Long. — 7 months ago
Great nose features earthy underbrush, roasted herbs, kirsch, and old barrel scents. Mouthfilling flavors are not too extracted, showing loads of savory notes and lots of iodine-tinged minerality. Tannins are soft initially but poke through in the back half of the palate, as does the peppery heat of the alcohol (15%). Acids are on the low-ish side. Finish is clingy and long. As a matter of personal principle, I usually decline to buy wines that are 15% or more, but I got this from Garagiste, which didn’t state the alcohol content, and I clicked purchase before checking. Still, pretty good. — 2 months ago
