2010 vintage. Pretty good Cotes du Rhone. This bottle was a little corky, but it still drank well with steak. The blend was nice - earthy and full of fruit, with a woody and spicy nose. Had a good mouthfeel. A little barnyard (more after it opened) but not too much overall. Decent; another bottle of the same vintage might be even better.
