Tasted August 2011.
Lot's of tar on the nose. Full bodied and heady. Reminds me of the '08 Cheateau De Beaucastel only more rugged, less refined. Dark fruit, leather, herbs, a bit medicinal. A kick in the face wine for sure. Interesting but not really my style and certainly not something I could drink on it's own. Maybe with some uber-hearty, savoury food like a bold beef stew.
