Terrific red wine from the La Clarine Estate vineyard, reminds me a little of Domaine de Trevallon (Cab and Syrah, though here other grapes as well), big and rich still, showing just a tad of mature notes, long, persistent finish, hides its 14.5% ABV well, kudos to Hank!!

Sep 25th, 2024Berry fruit and wild Provençal herb aromas, still very youthful and primary, but great depth of fruit, ripe tannins and still structured, not bitter, really excellent bottle of LCF that needs further aging!!

Blind I would swear this was Northern Rhone. Lavender, pepper, savory dark fruit and aromatic as hell. Super.
