Nice looking bottle. Youngish appearance in the glass. Dark cranberry color, almost opaque. Meaty nose. Notes of red and black fruits, charcuterie, currants and dried herbs. Chewy in the mouth at first, with an edge that mellows with air. Some pepper notes, some kirsch and the Grenache profile emerges over time. A very good CdP, I must say.

Wow... amazing wine... This bottle was firing on all cilinders!
Great complexity, élégance and depth...
Fantastic stuff and in my top 3 Grenaches ever tasted (up there with SQN Incognito and Beaucastel 81).

Not bad, but a little monochromatic.

Humming dark red fruit with thyme, rosemary and a grungy sour cherry acidity. Lovely de roped fruit with lots going on. Great length and grrr. Very good stuff.

A little syrupy but the oak has integrated and shows correct. Very nice
