  Palate: Mature red fruit, forest floor, peat and tar. Well balanced tannins and fruit. In a good place.

  Fruit forward and a bit warm. Not bad, but not at all my style.

  11/30/2012 - coyler Likes this wine:

  Visual: nice, pretty moderately transparent reddish/purple color. No signs of bricking.
  
  Nose: Sous Bois, forest floor, pine needles, weathered oak
  
  Palate: Starts with crunchy bright red fruit, comes on strong with balanced oak, forest floor, peat and tar. Great balance in a strong, masculine forward approach that transforms into a beautiful, almost feminine finish of tar and rose petals.
  
  Very special bottle indeed. This blows away the previous bottle. A+!!! Hitting WAY above its weight. Thank you Bacchus!

  Visual: somewhat cloudy, magenta center which turns garnet to a grating edge.
  
  Nose: pine tar, oyster mushrooms and a bit of spice box
  
  Palate: Red cherries, bit of confectionary sugar, tar, pine and foret floor.
  
  Nicely balanced fruit and tannins. A good, but not terribly long finish. Solid B+

  A nicely mature sauvage nose with a taste that follows the same impression. Quite well balanced, although a bit too ripe for my taste. It is also somewhat rustic and in the end I didn't find it very delicious. Succesful for the vintage anyway, I guess.
