Having a glass of this while I prepare Rajat Parr’s braised lamb shanks (garlic and Indian spices). This is going to pair perfectly! The florals and spices are so pretty! Smooth, ripe raspberries, black plum, with a great finish.

Mar 24th, 2020I've had both the 2011 and the 2012. The 2012 has riper fruit flavors and gamey notes. As someone previously mentioned, it smells like bug spray but not in a bad way. The 2011 has dark concentrated fruit flavors but less ripe. It's a bit more acidic. The herbal notes really shine through in this wine along with some earth. The wine has a long spicy finish. The 2011 is definitely more Rhone.
