Drank 2/21/19. Tasting event. Tasting pour.

Big nose of black and red fruits with some underbrush and earth scents. Cherry, black cherry, earth, and medium + tannins. Long finish.

4/22/7/3/4 +50 =90 pts.

Great color and sweet aroma. Complex flavors - not sure this one was my favorite. Definitely needed a cooler temp than room temp

Isolation Wine 5: The evening started pretty grim. All grocery stores around us ran out of meat and I was craving meat. This wine came through.. it was juicy, earthy( truffley even) and went down easy and warm.

Always excellent although the 2016 is not as remarkable as year’s past.

Finally found a French wine region that I love. Big bold grenache blend. Fruity, smooth. This is a wine! Merci!
