Lovely, elegant, and fragrant mix that is spicy and savoury, joined by ripe dark red cherry, raspberry, and red plum aromas, plus hints of white pepper spice and meaty notes. It's medium-full bodied with good concentration on the crunchy palate with spicy flavours of ripe dark red cherry, raspberry, and red plum that tapers to savoury, earthy, and meaty flavours. Saliva-inducing fresh and juicy acids. Supple, lightly grippy tannins. Nicely balanced throughout with lovely dark red cherry, raspberry, and mineral notes lingering on the long, juicy finish. Tasted Nov. 2022.

Bought a couple more while on sale.
nice stuff. the barber wouldnt let me drink though (apr'23)
Classic south Rhone red here by Xavier, Loads of red fruit, pepper and spice and everything nice, like local herbs and such. Some tannin on the finish, but this is not destined for anything but short term hold (just drink it now, while you get your hair done or whatever). Tasted Sep 2022.

David’s comment sums this up well; medium weight, easy drinking, and juicy. Very enjoyable desistir the 14.5 alcohol.
