Still working on a case. Showing as good as I’ve seen in a while. Quite delicious funkiness — a month ago
Blend of 70% Grenache, 17% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah & 3% Cinsault, deep Ruby color with aromas of berry fruits, oak and floral spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with oak, herb spice and floral notes. Wine was complex and elegant with fine smooth tannins, long fruit and spicy finish. Very Nice! — 2 months ago
Opened the day before with half the bottle remaining. The 2007 CdR Villages pours a deep purple color with an opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated dark brambles, red and purple flowers, open pasture land, olives, some black pepper, leather and organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, the finish is medium+. This is an impressive wine despite the rather modest designation, especially when you consider it’s nearly 18 years old! Then again, the talent behind this wine should yield a solid wine (Pegau & Cailloux). Drink now though it could easily see its 25th birthday if you must hold one longer. — 6 months ago

Light golden color. Aromas of yellow fruit, citrus, grass, flint and white flowers. Flavors of pears, yellow apples and gooseberries along with tropical fruit note. Hint of flinty smoke on the long and crisp finish. Bold acidity and a slightly creamy texture. Bright and fresh. Thanks for sharing, Keith S! — 8 days ago
