A taut puzzle to start. Better once decanted and given 30-45 minutes to open. Once through that rectification (it was yesterday’s word of the day) this baby was quite the ride. Beautifully fragrant and inviting. Not deeply dark in color but still richly deep purple. The fruit is layered and comes in waves. Dark fruit, blueberries lingering finish. I expected this to be a very good CA Cab. I was wrong this was special. Lots of resonating impulses here. Loved this. It was great. — 5 months ago

Really gulpable and fresh. Serve cold. Austrian Beaujolais with some funk on the nose. Austrian reds (made like this) are underrated. — 3 months ago
Good recommendation at Thomas liquors in St Paul. — 2 years ago
We tried this for the first time at Restaurant Alma a year ago and bought two bottles before we’d finished the first glass. We finally brought one out of the cellar to pair with a wine and cheese plate from St. Paul Cheese Shop. Lovely evening. — 4 years ago
Wow, Paul @W64 recommended, out in the shop was 2018, he went to get 2016, boy did I get lucky, I prefer less full bodied, this was medium to full bodied, soft, silky smooth, all the St Emilion and sooo much more, worth every cent of €60...it's bio-organic too. wine now at room temp, lavender, lights plums, defo upping it to awesome 9.3 sod it best wine ever for me, and thats some going.... — 10 months ago
2020 vintage. Another winner from Jaboulet and a great example of this under-the-radar northern Rhône appellation. Peaches, flowers and subtle spices. Crisp fruit and good almondy length and a hint of fresh mint. — 2 years ago

Had this opened and decanting for 2 hours and it did not feel like enough time for this wine to emerge.
Dense and chewy. This wine seemed to hold back but brimming with flavor
