Typical Southern Rhône aromas of lavender and thyme. Rich smoky flavors of blackberry with savory spices, round tannins and long minerally finish. Great value Costco find.

A big concentrated wine with loads of fruit but more rustic than polished which I dig. At $13 very well done. Some near term aging would likely help...

Undrinkable wine and I think this wine was not kept properly. There is no taste of fruits and no aftertaste. Very disappointed.

Opens up well with decant. Nose is filled with blackberry and cherry. Smoky flavor with currants. Good tannins, medium to full bodied.
