Black tapenade, leather, Provence herbs... superb!

Pretty damn solid CDP, lots of earthy spice mixed in with a soft fruit. Structure isn't overwhelming, very drinkable. Almost too earthy for myself, though my wife digs it a lot. Paired with some duck saucisson, which did very well together!

Drank 4/26/18 at a tasting event.

Dark scents of tar and blackberry mixed with earthy notes. Juicy Black fruits and medium + well integrated tannins mingle with earth. Long finish.

4/22/8/4/4 + 50 = 92 PTS

Really nice traditional Rhône blend with those wonderful earthy and gamey notes. My mom brought this back with her, so I'm not sure of the availability.
