From a magnum. Half decanted and half not. Didn’t really make a difference. More French than CA. Rustic nose with hints of burning wood and manure. Modest cherry fruit on the palate with cedar and earth. Medium depth and finish. Age really showed through. Not the wine I was expecting at all, but was nice. Somewhat similar to Domaine Tempier Bandol.

Really good, excellent balance. Decanted about 1 hr. May have a couple years of cellaring left in it. Vintage 2006
