100% grenache. Beautiful texture front to back. A bit meaty on the nose and palate with deep red fruit underneath. Subtle menthe and gamy notes with just a hint of creamy cocoa and spice. The Saladin sisters do great work! 2010 vintage

I remember buying this and thinking "I am paying WAY too much for CdR", but upon opening this bottle and getting that classic southern Rhone bouquet of spice and stone fruit I realized I was in a good place. Smooth mouthfeel - lean but not tannic, with bright fruit mid palate and a nice long finish. This bottle is a winner, in a good place right now, and was what the dr. ordered on a Friday night in. Thanks Lyle.

2006, un peu passé, mais toujours coulant. Tirait un peu sur le pruneau, la confiture de groseille, la pinot noir oublié... Très beau vin à boire dans les 6 ans.

Thought this would be better. Less CdP more CdR. Like the producer and their story but this just didn't wow me. Still, it's a good drink with a steak at the beach.
