I agree with Mr Schildknecht on the rating here - it is an excellent wine and I lament having purchased only one bottle - which I have finished. "Highly quaffable" (from the label), juicy with surprisingly matured tannins.
Very complex aromatics in this blend; black fruit, savoury, licorice, black pepper with some minerals. Medium to full body, balance acidity and drying tannins. This wine is muscular with generous flavours. I wish I had brought more than this one bottle. Strongly recommended.
Nice, smooth full-bodied wine from a great region making a comeback on the wine scene. I was expecting a lot more though, especially after having been treated to Languedoc wines of the great 2009 vintage year.Tasted January 2013.
