This was a great value. Very old-fashioned southern Rhone flavor profile in a smooth-textured package. A must buy for holiday parties, to have on hand when guests unexpected pop by, and for weeknight dinners.
Dark black ruby with magenta highlights. Closed nose at first, but with air it displayed a rich, iodiney nose of dark sweet berries, baking spices, warm sandstone, and sweet cream. Mouthfilling, with loads of texture from smooth nano-tannin, it had inky, iodine-laced dark berry syrup flavors. Good acids for balance. Performing way above its pay grade. Imported by The Sorting Table, this was $10 and change at Spec's on Smith. B+
