2009, La Celestiere, Cotes Du Rhone, 50 Grenache/ 50 Cinsault. Second bottle of this, while it is a little better with age, it is still a "too much" wine: too much alcohol, too much extraction and tannins are still not integrated. There are layers of fruit, spices and other secondary aromas and flavors but are overshadowed by the alcohol.
