Great wine to watch the Bastille Day fireworks, loaded with spices and balanced with fruit. Awesome texture and freshness.

Beaucastel has always made my favorite wines. Lush fruit w a little licorice. It has a little of that classic 'meaty' character as well. A great value from a renowned producer.

Ballin on a budget (sort of). Baby CNDP. Layers of dark fruits ranging from ripe, to jam, to dried. Blackberry juice, dried figs, roasted plums, black raspberries, powdered sugar. Enough garrigue and meaty charm, licorice, peppercorns, cocoa, cloves, spices, sweet tannins and forest. All this classic CNDP character and density on a approachable frame. Crushed it w/roasted lamb gyros.

Hmm, only moderately pleased with this. A good producer but a decidedly anonymous wine. Could probably do with a couple more years on it but it will still be a bit flat. Perhaps a dud bottle? I know I've had better so either it's the vintage or the wine has gone down hill... The expected berry flavours and hint of pepper and spice were there but muted and almost stewed. Will have to re-taste.

Really solid wine with a heat, spiciness and extraction. But in balance. Pair with http://www.doxologywine.com/musings/2015/5/21/matters-of-trust

Fruity and peppery, drier, over priced.

Fruity (cherry), with a touch of licorice and spice. Prude finish, leaves you wanting more..
