Nose

Bouquet of fine white pepper, rosewater, stewed strawberry, and rhubarb.

Palate

"The 2020 Claude's Cuvee has an Hermitage-like bouquet of roasted herbs, licorice, ground pepper, and meaty, leathery nuances as well as full-bodied richness, a great core of ripe Syrah fruit, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's another rich, mouth-filling release from this estate that's more than noteworthy in the vintage." - Jeb Dunnuck
