    October 11, 2020 - Dark nose of liquorice, violet, tea leaves, bramble, tobacco and Earth. Brighter, lighter palette of stewed cherry and cranberry. Abrupt finish but still packed enough of a punch to hold up to Porchetta with Shitake risotto. Drink over the next couple of years.

    March 15, 2020 - Fully mature now I think. Funky, wild nose. Tertiary marks on the palate, very little fruit left. Cool, upright, lean body. Potentially past peak. Drink up.

    January 1, 2017 - Shockingly tight from magnum. Understated and lovely

    July 11, 2016 - So, as my last note in 2015 said this was not done yet, but here we are in July 2016 and stick a fork in it, it is done. Still drinkable but nothing like the previous experiences with this delicious bottle from a great producer. Drink up and put food with it and you will probably not notice it is a little past prime. As a side note, I opened the 2005 "Cotes du Py" from this producer 3 weeks AFTER this one and it absolutely ROCKED. It was drinking great!

    November 13, 2015 - This has lost its primary fruit characteristics but doesn't show much complexity or tertiary marks and comes across as a bit dull. It might be in awkward stage or maybe it should have been drunk up years ago. I can tell from my notes that I was impressed with this wine back in 2010. Have a few more bottles left that I will sleep for a while longer.

Rockss and Fruit

    (Marcel Lapierre Morgon) Nice to taste the ni ni and no ni ni cuvees side by side. You really get a sense of the difference. There was vivid red fruits but they were less defined. It was just as ripe as the ni ni but just less focused and less pure.
