March 15, 2013 - this is now fully in bloom and peaking. no aeration needed. drink now. excellent value and again a lesson that Faiveley requires time.

January 7, 2011 - more than a year later, this requires decanting. however, after 60 min bouquet is evolving (tart fruit, cherry, bark, ground sand), palate with prominent acid profile (bitterness is still present). again, a food wine. a bit more evolved, pleasant and enjoyable.

October 10, 2009 - almost a year later, this still needs decanting, or at least patience. there are some green stem aromata that feed a certain bitterness/ acidity probably hard to get rid of during maturation. very nice with food: tonight venison medallion with orange lemon butter.

November 22, 2008 - decanting needed, appealing nose, pleasing, green notes in the finish, not too far from its peak
