  March 9, 2020 - Light medium red. Very elegant herbal red fruit nose. Light red cherr and thyme flavours and a soft dry finish. Not at all what I would expect from a 2003.

  June 8, 2019 - Correct wine, the vintage is handled well, but it is time to drink this now, full bodied with some roasted notes, quite dark - and lacks the sharpness and freshness of a great Cornas.

  August 26, 2017 - Rather closed on the nose with funky notes. Light to medium bodied, smooth and resolved tannins, showing fading dark fruit with funk and licorice. Has developed nicely and it is time to drink up. Won´t improve anymore.

  March 30, 2013 - Figured this would be a total hit or a total miss given the difficult vintage. Some people managed to pull 03 off with amazing fruit, but this was rare even at release, nevermind ten years later. This wine was under ripe and tasted of a vintage where the vines simply shutdown. Purchased and drank two bottles of this in quick succession and the one confirmed the other. Some tart red fruit but mostly just acid, a bit of funk, and just thin on the palate, the wine coming off already slightly oxidised and the fruit tired out. Not much more to say.
