Dark fruit, soft mouthfeel, minerality, wears the heat well.

Classic Rhone blend what’s more to ask for.

Mörka bär, örter, baconfett, saltlakrits. Upplevs lite sval och slank i stilen. Bra men inte superspännande CdR-village.

I’ve got stories.
The less appreciated Cortázar, Argentinian writer born and Belgium and died in Paris, could spin a good yarn, too.
Red, clay, soil earthiness, redwood breeze, and a currant spice note. Leather and plums all in the bouquet.
Gotta let this one rest a bit. Mouth-numbing pink peppercorn spice, not spicy per se, but feisty.
Charcoaled bark, medium to high acidity, a bit less fruit, but obviously still there.
This was recommended to me as a step up from wines produced in the Vacqueyras appellation. While I can see that it’s a bit more grown up, reserved, balanced, and classic. I don’t think I like it better — I enjoy raucous, wild, young, and brash. There’s more adventure. There’s more unhinged flavor surprises, which naturally lead to better stories. And, really, what else is there?
Good competition, but not sold just yet, Gallo-Roman medieval land and all.
