Bon vin mais un peu trop riche à mon goût. Sucrosité trop marquée. Je préfère les millésimes plus légers comme 2013. Peut être bu ou attendu sans souci plusieurs années.

A big bruiser of a wine. This is all kirsch (15.5%) but luckily the texture is big, rich and smooth. You will need something strong like a lamb tajine with prunes or raisins to take some of the heat out of it. Needs decanting. Still going strong despite the relatively old age for a Cotes du Rhone.

With Hillary/Christopher. Very young yet, with really nice complexity to fruit. Even after decant and hour, was a bit overpowering, would like to hold last one a couple years

Joli vin mais marqué par la chaleur du millésime.
A accorder avec un plat qui supporte bien la sucrosité du vin.

This got much better with age. Dark fruit and some nice hints of bloody meat. But I’d drink these soon.
