    February 26, 2024 - Coravin. Medium-deep ruby; medium intensity aromatics, black fruited, bacon smoke, meaty BBQ; palate is medium bodied, excellent elegant acidity throughout, medium alcohol (13% on the bottle, probably a little more but well balanced), lovely blend of primary black fruit with some minerality; finish is medium-long. This is a very nice Northern Rhone syrah with plenty of typicity and drinking at early maturity. Lovely wine. 92+

    February 12, 2024 - Better than the bottle I had two years ago. Opened for two hours prior to dinner. Fruit and hints of spice on the nose. The palate was berry, dark cherry, red plums and some Christmas spices. Finish was moderate to long.

    February 7, 2024 - Brick-red rim, opaque core; secondary notes, black olives, whiff of violets, understated; cool fruit, gruff mid-palate, then subtle spiciness; attractive finish, decent length. Just hoped a little more of everything.

    February 4, 2024 - Racy and mineral in a play of leather, red fruit and the hint of violet and steel. Gone are the harsh tannins, the mouth feel is medium and the finish soft. Something perhaps sour at first, the wine opened after an hour.

    Elk tenderloin, celeriac mash, broccoli rab and a Maine blueberry cognac sauce with a touch of mustard.

    Fine night
