March 12, 2024 - Coravin'd a couple of glasses as I was doing some research on how to make Chicken Marsala more red wine friendly. Needless to say, this wine proved to perfect as it has a good amount of body and depth of complexity that worked really well when I added some truffle and porcini powder to the chicken. RC doing RC things - love it.

April 29, 2023 - Pop n poured for friends over for Sat nite. As it warmed up in our glasses the aroma is not very fruitful but on tasting it has a nice grip of blueberry & dried fruits. med finish - v nice.

January 13, 2023 - I have a soft spot for this wine as it introduced me to RC - as it does for a lot of people. This is drinking well right now; a little bit too much fruit for me on first taste and smell (we did pnp) but that settles down nicely. Not as blueberry-ee as it was; will see how that continues to settle down over the next few years.

August 3, 2021 - Black-red color. Tobacco, dark berries and plums, earthy. Some astringency at the end. Totally love it!
