I have always loved this cuvée, but this new vintage needs a bit more time in the cellar. Really tight and tart right now.

Raspberry, alpine strawberry (without the sweetness). Clean, just enough tartness to be a great food wine, but not so much that you can't enjoy as a sipping wine.

Some years this elevates above a humble provençal blend. This is not one of those years. Still, easy and tasty, a good match for medium weight dinners.

Beautiful, soft, medium-bodied red from Provence. Soft drying tannins, dried herbs and red fruits with crisp acidity. All perfect for a rack of lamb. P.S. Why don't we see more 500ml bottles back in the states? It's a wonderful size for a dinner for 2.

Took a little bit to open up. Dark yet bright ripe fruit with a nice tannic finish. Would drink this again and again.

Enough acid and spice to make this a new Uva Côté-du-Rhône value staple. Doesn't blow me away, but how many other quality medium bodied wines can you snag at this price?
