Garrigue herbs, floral notes and warm fruits with a touch of licorice. Great structure and medium tannins will allow for good aging. The 2011 vintage is more herbaceous and less fruit-forward than is past years, and still too young - took an age of decanting to get it to shine. Dont open yet - hold. Lots of potential.

Mostly Mourvèdre, I drank this wine using Coravin over about 5 days. Showing that beautiful mix of blueberry snd smoked game up front. Closed over first few days, opened up quite nicely. Tannins still evident but have tempered some. Lovely acidity and vibrancy. Want to taste older vintages.

Love comparing classics, not to judge better or worse, but to understand place. Tempier is more ripe, less fruity.
