    April 10, 2024 - Big crazy nose, can't put my finger/ nose on the smell, it's really spicy.
    Firm, meaty and serious on the palate. Black fruit and mineral. So different to the crunchy light Saumurs I am used to. Needs time.

    March 29, 2024 - Ripe nose of pepper, black fruits and a touch of vegetal.

    Beautiful mouthfeel, very supple, it is spicy and very fruity at the same time, with a balanced juice with good acidity. There is an eminently savory side to this wine that I really like. Decent finish on a slightly short length for my taste but it remains very good.

    December 18, 2023 - I like the tobacco, cranberry and menthol elements. But it felt a little tart and underdeveloped. May need some time.

  • DH90 Likes this wine: 91 points

    September 28, 2023 - Deep purple color, rich aromas of blackberries, roasted meat, and thyme. Decent finish but not long. Very decent wine now and likely for another 3-7 years.
