March 7, 2017 - Sur le déclin. Nez encore envoutant de tabac, cèdre, floral, des notes balsamiques. La bouche est svelte, avec des tannins complètement fondus, une acidité nette mais une finale bien courte.

There's a hint of compost and moss development although the wine is fresh and vibrant. Drinking really nicely with plenty still in the tank.

August 27, 2012 - Dried leaves, leather, coffee grounds, light slightly sweet, tart cherry; medium body, medium high acidity, tannins almost completely resolved, very silky, sour cherry finish with nice lifting acidity in the end. Slightly more mellow the next day making it more even more appealing. Worked with both pork loin and (light) teriyaki chicken.
