  Just had a sip after it was open and refrigerated overnight. This one is Showing secondary character and would drink up if I had more.

  Joyful nose with plenty of fruits with a touch of stems. Gourmand, sometimes almost pinot like, back and forth between red fruits (strawberry, cherry) and darker fruits. Nice little structure. Like it !

  Needed some air to open up, but when it did had a great floral nose of crushed red berries. Razor-like palate, with energetic acidity hitting the palate, and pur cherry pit, licorice, and cranberry flavors. Moderate palate, with a little earth mixed in. Very nice, expressive wine, with tons of acidity. Is a great food wine and has some structure to age a bit.

  Nice pairing with rost chicken and roasted vegetables. Nice nose of red fruits (cherries, raspberries, cranberries0 and some earthy herbal notes. Medium to full bodied and nicely balanced. Enjoyable bottle.

  Right off the bat, this smelled crunchy, with tart raspberries and cranberries dominating things. But WOW was it tart, so into the decanter with you Monsieur Bojo. After about 1-2 hours, the edges softened and the finish lengthened, so by the time we plated, the wine was still super crisp but much friendlier. Beautiful crisp red fruits and berries, and a mid-length finish that ended with bright acidity. Very good with some chicken and rice, and shockingly delicious with a salad in a tart vinaigrette. In fact, it went better with the salad than the main dish. Very nice but definitely needs food.
