Dark color. Nose is still subdued an hour after opening. Full, rich dark cherry tastes with good length. Tannins are well integrated. Not especially complex at this point though the potential is still there. A satisfying drink for now.

I liked this OK, but I don't think that it was worth the $80 that I paid for it. I have had NV bottles from other producers at half the price that I liked better -- e.g., Roederer Premiere Cru.

Just opened. Fairly thick and rich. No brett in this bottle (a previous bottle that I tasted was affected by brett). OK but not great.
