Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
“The 2010 Côtes-du-Rhône features a higher proportion of Grenache in its blend. Abundant fruity aromas of cherry and strawberry, intertwined with the characteristic notes of garrigue, licorice, olive, and leather. This spicy, fruit-forward 2010 can be enjoyed over the next two years.” (Wine Advocate Oct. 2011 - Robert Parker)

Powerful, but lacks finesse, in my opinion. Perhaps a bit young and needs time to develop. To be continued...
