Well...this bottle showed quite a bit different from the last one. Very primary wine that tasted like very young Grenache. Maybe a little bit like a mediocre, young CdP. Very pruny, raisiny, and a little hollow and unexciting. I noticed the prune and raisin flavors in the first bottle as well, but not as strongly. Still drinkable, but I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the last bottle. I don't know if it's going through a weird phase, or if there is significant bottle variation in this vintage of Gros Nore. The bottle I had was not worth the money and I wouldn't buy it again if I judged it only based on this performance.
