    April 12, 2024 - Sour Cherry and Spicy Cranberry on those nose. Cedar too

    Palte also brings in some blueberries as well to the mix

    December 19, 2023 - drank this after demolishing a very nice Alsace Pinot blanc. It went so well with the chicken tajine i had prepared with green olives, preserved lemons and chick peas and dried apricots.
    Quite a lot of plummy fruit and cherries, dried olives, nice acid balance, probablycoild have waited a few more years before drinking. It was bright, energetic and more full bodied than expected

    December 11, 2023 - Lovely and intense ruby color with some rim variation. Drinking nicely now but has, at least 3 or 4 years to go. Complex highly aromatic nose that begins with Gamay Noir typical pretty candied fruit bowl followed by baking spices and some sweet herbs like majoram or valencia orange. (i sense the connection to Bourgogne here with the solft texture but also something like a slightly oxidized pinot. Similar flavors on the palate adding blueberries. Nice tart acidity to balance the fruit, low tannin and a mouthfeel that caresses the tongue and gums. Moderate distinctive finish. A unique wine.

    November 11, 2023 - Very good: clear and pure black and red cherry, strawberry, and hints of cedar and spice.

    November 5, 2023 - After reading the prior reviews, I gave it an hour to breathe before pouring. Served it with a lamb tagine, and it worked beautifully. Picked up in the apricots in the dish, and was just subtle enough to not overpower. Tannins hid well behind the spices of the food, and sipping after dinner they were still pleasant on the mid-tongue.
