Man oh man! What a wine. Deep dark Garnett, dark fruits, and that oddly enjoyable smell like when you open up one of your parent’s storage boxes. Ahhh, so good.

Middle of the road for the vintage but that still leaves room for it to be a very fine wine.

Very closed right now, opened up slightly after a full day in a decanter. Definitely not ready to drink.

This bottle was not as good as the first one but still an excellent chateauneuf that worked wonders with our diner.

Aug 20th, 2025This was a real finding in the Ritz restaurant at South Beach. Old vintage with all the bells and whistles. Cork was a bit problematic to take off but wine was pristine. Starting to show some secondary notes and all the garrigue you can ask for.

Nose of blueberry and black raspberry open up to a dimensional full bodied wine, smooth to the finish. Paired nicely with a glazed ham. While 10 years old, surprising life left - should continue to develop nicely over the next 5 years.

Rich and savory with a braised fruit concentration. Spicy, peppery notes on the finish and a gripping acidity keep you wanting the next sip. Starting to reach its peak.
