Restaurant purchase from memory. Color light garnet. Nose showed bright red fruits with earth and minerality. this started a bit brisk but with some air smoothed itself out and picked up some weight on the palate. Very classy Marsannay, was a perfect foil for my 5 spice red snapper and carrot whip.

Let decant for over two hours but never really reached its potential. Tried it the next day and felt like we missed something. I think it just needs time and it will be a fantastic wine.

Very open with cherry fruit, granite, and lots of acid on day one. Day two the fruit was much more quiet with earth and mineral present. Rebuy: maybe.

Big and ripe and rich, this was fully day two, which I don't think was doing it a favor. So taste a fresh bottle next time.
