July 4, 2019 - Fun wine, good showing. Fresh bramble compote with a spritely zip. All pop, little weight or tannin. Broken-in saddle brett in place to raise some eyebrows. Enjoyed by all; though the magnum might have been more than we could chew.

February 21, 2018 - Wow, never have all the other reviews been dead on to my experience. Lots of sulphur on nose. Very green, and tart cranberry on palate. After decanting for 5 hours it was getting better. Should have read notes before opening, would have drank next day after opening.

May 13, 2017 - Long decant / air seemed to help open the wine up and blow off some of the sulfurous funk through there was plenty of brett remaining. Has some classic carbonic lift and through light weight, has plenty to contemplate.

October 3, 2015 - Much too green peppery for my palette. I didn't get much fruit on this at all at this point. I thought my first bottle was substantially better.
