April 27, 2024 - Quick decant before drinking it on its own. Nose of milk chocolate and cocoa. Rich palate delivers am intense blend of dark black cherry, chocolate, fresh sage and dried herbs Fat tannins on the finish with vanilla, black raspberry, and loads of French oak.

May 1, 2023 - 90 minute decant. Nose of oak, black cherry, and some blackberry fruit. Plush palate of black cherry, red licorice, red peppercorn, blackberry, and fennel followed by a firm line of dried Italian herbs. Chunky tannins on the finish with plum that fades quickly into stones and polished French oak.

March 12, 2023 - Nose is dusty old wine cellar.
First sip, fruit is shrouded by burnt oak and stout tannin that almost ruins it.
Fades quickly leaving a warm trail and a hint of sour milk.
Second sip, still brisk, fresh leather boot, tree sap.

August 27, 2022 - The Franc really came through and stole the show! Pleasant notes of violets, sage, thyme, salted caramel, toasted plums, blackberries, and mint. Silky smooth palate, superbly balanced, soft tannins on a long finish.
