  March 18, 2021 - PnP. Better once it got 30-45 min of air.
  Deep garnet. Very muted nose. Blackberries, light licorice, and a hint of pepper in the background. Medium/mellow tannins with a hint of acidity up front. Definitely a Crozes off the Galets though with the powdery gravel feel mixed in the finish rather than the solidness of granite.
  Another 6-12 months and its score will probably improve a bit. Not certain it is quite all the way out of its closed state yet.

  August 27, 2020 - PnP, with muted aromas and flavors of black raspberry, tar, and black licorice, with hints of black pepper in the background. A chalky tannic note lingers on the medium finish.

  April 25, 2020 - A well balanced wine with lots of soft dark fruit, no need to decant. Blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry , smoke. Smooth tannins. Very enjoyable and good value, this wine is getting even better now, recommended.
