Rhone Commanderie dinner (Little Park): Maybe the oldest version of this wine that I've had. It's drinking quite nicely. Very round and full bodied. Reminds me a bit of burnt orange in that perfect sweet spot where the sweet is mostly gone but it's not really all that burnt either. Very good.

Orange-yellow, some apple cidery oxidation on the nose, but this dissipated after the wine breathed and more waxy honey came through. Still drinking surprisingly well with almost no sign of oxidation.

Dark yellow. Big, complex, a little waxy, not fruity at all. I thought it was interesting. Laura want sure she liked it. Cork was a little funky and didn't want to come out with the key tool, and I inadvertently pushed it into the bottle. The corkfish got it out easily though.

This is deep, gold in color. Full of minerals, flowers and sweet, ripe fruit, with great body, concentration and an exotic texture, this wine gives a lot of pleasure.

Really interesting. Loads of acid and some oxidation, waxy and with a little tart lemon fruit. Very very concentrated and powerful.
