Score 18.5/20 · Drink 2016-2030, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2008
Very dark and healthy looking. Positively glows! Sort of burnished leather on the nose. Very succulent and demands attention. This is a very well made wine with notes of liquorice and tar that is less obviously Châteauneuf than some but should please all. Attractive dry (not drying) finish and very long without being obviously alcoholic. Some oak influence evident. (Foudres and demi-muids apparently for this blend of 70% Syrah with Grenache and Mourvèdre. (JR)
