Meaty, dark and peppery, this is an intriguing southern Rhône red, with above average complexity and density to be...

A good buy here! This is a mid-weight, nicely firm and fairly intensely flavoured Rhone with pepper, meaty notes,...

Another great value from the south of France. Light cherry red colour and somewhat translucent. Cherry fruit, pepper, spice, cinnamon hearts, chocolate and slightly bitter. Medium-full bodied, a bit hot with alcohol burn in the late palate. Medium acidity provides some freshness and fine chalky tannin. Very good length. Well-priced and a nice mid week, cool weather quaff. Nov. 2017.

A solid CdR, with pepper and herbs infused red berry fruit. Upon first sniff and taste, these seemed to have all the hallmarks of a fine south Rhone red. Unfortunately, some bitterness and slightly harsh acids arrive on the finish along. Tasted Dec 2017.
