7/1/2004 (link)(Potel Nicolas Santenay) From a half bottle. Deep, healthy colour. The nose is a faintly oak influenced melange of red and black, slowly develops a nice creme brulee note. The palate is big and sweet with very good acidity and plenty of tannins - they are very slightly bitter, but not overly astringent. Tons of fruit, though its a somewhat stewed black and red mix. Good finish. Brusque and bold - I enjoyed every drop!

11/1/2003 (link)(Potel Nicolas Santenay) Medium cherry red - looks very young - perhaps just a little lighter at the rim. Bright redcurrant nose, some raspberry and strawberry too - must admit, unlike many tasters I don't often find strawberry in reds. The palate has excellent acidity and medium tannins which are quite smooth if very drying. Despite how mouth-wateringly juicy this wine is, there seems a lack of depth on the palate. Certainly tasty and has very pure fruit but I would have preferred a little more oomph!
