September 20, 2021 - This has held up well. Bright red with no bricking. Nose of red fruits with a bit of earth. Very good acidity. Palate reflects the nose. Tannins well integrated. Drink or hold (but not too long).

July 18, 2015 - So this has not budged an iota from where it was 3 years ago. Probably needs 10+ years for the tannins to integrate.

November 17, 2012 - Very elegant nose of perfumed berries: dark cherry, blackberry. A bit of sandalwood as well with a hint of spice, carraway. On taste good fruit in the beginning with light to medium intensity, but the fine grain tannins come to the mid palate giving this a bit of spine. The finish is there leaving tannins on the tongue. Really still in its primal phase. Not ready to give up any charms. I would guess a long wait ahead of this wine for it to open up and come together. The score is more of a view to potential and current drinking - huge upside to an outstanding wine if it ages as I expect.

April 8, 2010 - Un nez subtil mais envoûtant de pain d'épice et de biscuit au gingembre qui me rappelle la jarre à biscuits de ma grand-mère. Une bouche à l'attaque saisissante sur les épices qui est suivi par de généreuses saveurs de tarte à la rhubarbe et à la framboises. Un brin rustique mais le vin se vide dangereusement de nos coupes tellement nous avons du plaisir à le boire .... Bon maintenant mais sera à la hauteur pour plusieurs années.

March 30, 2010 - nose is young and fresh. raspberry, strawberry, very american style. bubble gum, good depth, clove, cedar. Palate is very sharp and acidic, maybe that will subside with bottle time and air. chalky earth, ripe fruit, raspberry, tart, candied apple, blackberry, does lack a little depth. overall decent wine, but nothing to write home about.
