Superleggy, suggests high alcohol typical of Châteaunneufs. Roasted peppery aroma. Very tannic, indicates it could last a long time. Very dark, almost bitter, but full of beautiful dark fruit, creamy toastyness and pepper.

This was the wine that turned me on to the Rhone region. It remains my favorite to pair with any red meat that has a rich sauce because it really holds its own.

tasted 2007-04-20 This bottle is nicely matured. Colour is brick/burnt orange at the edges and well into the glass. Not a strong aroma, you have to take a sip to see what this wine is about. Mouthfeel is a little on the thin side, but the taste is very inviting - smooth as slipping into a fur coat. First there's spice, lots of it - like cinnamon -- and moving seamlessly to cedar in the mid-palate with a gentle lift to include a slight licorice flavour into the fairly long finish. Suggests a Grenache/Syrah blend. There is a slight prickle of tannin, finely structured. There's little drama to this wine -- it bequiles with its effortless charm. I was drawn to sip this more rapidly than usual, just to search for interesting flavours in the mid-palate where the woody notes start to give way to the licorice.
