September 5, 2015 - Lovely nose of dried flowers with gamy nuances and the fruit is gentle and stewed, like blood orange or something. Beautiful balance on the palate with clean and fresh flavors that show just enough complexity and length. A very good wine that delivers what is promised in a very pretty way.

October 16, 2013 - Excellent wine and drinking beautifully right now. Complexity, detail, and expressiveness that belies its modest terroir and price. Firmly structured bright red fruit completely shot through with pungent wet earthy soil, with a slightly rustic animale sense too. Absolutely lovely wine.

February 8, 2013 - Pretty and light on the nose and palate. Bright acidity makes this fresh and vibrant, but this is simple and lacks depth, making for a hollow mid-palate and very short, clipped finish. Nice, but drinks more like an AOC Bourgogne level wine and not a $34 one. Disappointed.
