Lush berries and chest warming alcohol. Soft black fruits and a smooth finish with velvety tannin.

2010 vintage - sweet red cherries, light spice. Alcohol felt a touch elevated, but overall pretty tasty.

Very well balanced. Fairly smooth and easy drinking. Cherries on the nose. Some soft chocolate notes. Definitely a new world styled French wine.

This wine is not for me. But stylistically--given the Panzer-like palate profiles of too many wine drinkers of recent years--this Rasteau hits all the right notes. So, if you like going a few rounds with your wine before it decks you...put on the gloves. ALC 15%--beautifully camouflaged. (2012 Vintage.)
