Sipping Fine Wine
Tried this again. Pronounced rich aromas of ripe dark fruits and spices. On the palate ripe cherry and plum with rustic spices and some tea notes. Fine ripe tannins, with slight grippy edge, hints of oak on medium+ finish ending with fruit and slight mineral edge. Nice Hermitage. Tasting Sample.

Dark cherry, plum and black tea. A bit rustic and unpolished in its acid.

A bit of pleasant funk on the nose, along with black olive and dried flowers. Cranberry, plum, almonds, more olives, orange zest. Finishes with savory herbs, a nice grip, and enough acidity to instantly want another taste.

Josh Reynolds nailed this. This has turned the corner. Soft, round and approachable. Lovely raspberry jam notes with sage and neutral oak treatment. Superb showing, but still young. Presents just how I like my Rhône’s. Leave this another 2 - 3 years.

Somewhat disappointing. Decanted but a bit flat. Waited too long?

Unfortunately, this bottle fell asleep. Not much going on. No harsh tannins and quite smooth, but little flavor.

Manure, smoked game, black cherry, eucalyptus, and black pepper on the nose. Soft mouth feel, well structured, finishes chalky with persistence (45+ seconds). Better in 3-5 years.
