  May 30, 2018 - As mentioned, acid is getting in the way of the fruit and woodsy flavors.

• liteagilis Does not like this wine:

  March 19, 2018 - light, lean and MEAN.
  Pretty red fruit and herb aromas but quite astringent palate. I'm over it. I was asking a lot. 06 Mercurey....

  May 25, 2017 - It's hard to say whether this is past its prime or merely in an awkward phase. It seems a bit tired, brown-fruited, implying the former, but I look at notes like Wine Strategies' in 2016 and my earlier notes, of high acidity and little body, and this wine isn't that. This definitely seems to have gained weight. I probably should have waited five more years. If it was dead it would have remained just as dead, but perhaps it would have been great. Will revisit tonight.

  January 2, 2014 - Aerated 1 hr, served non-blind. I've had rosé wines with more body (and personality) than this. Too much acid, too little fruit (and that means a lot coming from a confirmed member of the AFWE). 13,0% abv

  December 26, 2013 - Yikes. Lean with screeching acidity and high-toned red pinot fruit. This would pair well with Tums and Mylanta.
