very nice. loses a touch of greenness in around 30 minutes, and then has the usual CRB charm. Too bad it's not the Middle Ages, and we could bound Catherine and Didier to the land. One less bottle in my stash...sigh....
Crashing at Salil's House: ripe cherry, herbs, rich nose of sweet ripe fruit - almost gamay-like. with time - more herbs and mineral. mid is full of fresh red fruit, acidity, touch of tobacco. nice medium finish with a zing of lemon. a hint of bell pepper on the nose - but only if you search for it. Yum!

Sappy red fruit and tobacco leaf on the nose that run into the palate. This is excellent on entry, grainy tannins appear on the finish. Very Good – Drink or Hold

Nose of olive, dark fruit - purple, smoke, blueberry, meat, herbs - dusty finish. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 4.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 15.5/20.
