Folks, this is an all-time classic wine, known throughout the wine world, desired by collectors everywhere. There is no more iconic wine in the Rhone, and nothing of this quality and comparatively reasonable price tag. It’s drinking pretty well now for my palate, but a bit of time will pay huge dividends.
From The Wine Spectator: “This is pretty gorgeous, with a remarkably pure display of cassis, cherry puree and plum reduction flavors laced ever so gently with threads of leather, alder and dried garrigue. The sleek iron spine is buried deeply on the finish, and there's a lingering hint of warm stone as the fruit echoes through. Built to last. Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise, Vaccarèse, Terret, Muscardin, Clairette, Picpoul, Bourboulenc, Picardan and Roussanne. Best from 2024 through 2040. — JM
