The Jane (Antwerpen): [Restaurant purchase] No detailed notes. This was gorgeous; red berries, some black fruit, hint of barnyard. Long finish. It was a perfect match with the venison

Wine Workshop: Focus on Clos Rougeard (Cafe Evergreen): More green pepper and herbal and intense and bright. It needs a bit of time to settle in but then there’s this underlying classiness that exists in all of these wines and was definitely here too once it had the time to get there.

Terroir Tuesday at Table, Donkey and Stick (Clos Rougeard) (Chicago, IL): Seems like I've liked this bottle in the past, but in context with the rest of the wines tonight, this felt emaciated and weak. There's some smokiness on the nose here, as well as a bit of a cigarette ash note that I definitely do not enjoy. The palate is thin and light and definitely feels weak in comparison to the other wines; maybe it's a function of the vintage? High acidity and red fruits that are clearly on the underripe side.

Seems younger than I expected. Still some noticeable oak. Good juice int there but needs time

瓶醒6小时
非常纯净的棕红色
开始是樱桃的香甜、混杂着植物、青椒和泥土和雪松的气息。而后香料的气息逐步展现。但仍然是雨后森林的气息。
单宁质地丝滑,酸度明亮高挑。口感层次丰富复杂。烘烤的香料萦绕。收尾干净是浆果和巧克力的混合
