February 14, 2024 - needed some air. initially the fruit was lacking. stewed fruit finally emerged, but this just didn't wow me. might be on the downslide

July 4, 2023 - Cool stuff. This domaine is really showing it's worth in a warm vintage like this, a vertical wine with a sound, tru blue fruit, good local feel and this impeccable freshness, that you really have to love. Still young, drinking window just open.

December 25, 2022 - Dark plums, kirsch and showed good balance and acidity for a CdP from a warm vintage. Liked this and the 2019 that I tried at the domaine more than the 2001, so these might be better at around 15 years of age maximum.

March 20, 2022 - Root Day - Amazing bottle! Super silky on the palate. Gorgeous nose of secondary and tertiary elements - forest floor, dried dark fruit, crushed leaves and herbs. Complex and long on both palate and finish. Went beautifully with duck cassoulet but was also enjoyed after the meal as a contemplative wine sipped by itself.

February 6, 2022 - Wound up opening two bottles as the first one was tainted. The second bottle we had a glass of and then i recorked and put into the fridge. Sunday night we finished the bottle. Nice palate of dark cherry, raspberry, sandalwood and spice. The finish was moderate to long with a slightly sweet taste which made it very pleasant to drink. Finished it with an assortment of cheese.
