November 7, 2022 - Slow ox for an hour, this bottle was expressive after two hours or so. Surprisingly resolved tannins and integration, this tasted mature to me. Came back for a glass on night two having been sealed overnight, and also surprising, it was best on first night. Classic profile with saline / oyster shell that threw me off - tasted blind, I probably would have guessed Pessac.

April 24, 2012 - The production is always tiny, but with the combination of only 20% of the vineyard being replanted and a difficult vintage, less than 500 cases will be made of the 2011. From 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is aged in 100% new oak. Coffee, floral, black plum, earth and smoky barbecue aromas open to a supple-textured, round, sweet, black cherry-filled wine. 91-93 Pts
