Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Pretty nose with black fruits, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, oak, licorice, dark chocolates, light earth, coffee, herbs and peppercorn.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a delicious Grenache blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Fruit forward and easy drinking. Nicely balanced and interesting. Rich, yet elegant.
Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.
Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already very approachable. The high alcohol is well integrated.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years. Has good potential to become a 94 point wine.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 75% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre, 3% Counoise and 2% Vaccarese. Aged in (20% new) large French oak barrels.
15.5% alcohol by volume.

I will but every bottle of Bize I am offered. Chisa has such a beautiful touch of finesse and ethereal character in her wines. — 2 months ago

What a lifted expression of a chard this is.
Nose doesn’t reveal too much, but there’s a hint of white flowers. Mid palate is all about honeysuckle with baking spices and baked apples. A cut grass note comes along for the ride. Pristine, squeaky clean, ethereal finish. Burgundy at its finest. Food would spoil the enjoyment of this example. — 12 days ago
