Fjodor's note just below this one is spot on. Excellent rustic Roilette. I have had a number of wines from this producer going back to the '09 vintage and this one is spot on. Drink now +5 or more years, with some evolution yet to come.
I had half. Drank over 1 day. Vvv

The most rustic wine I've drunk. Dried cherry, red soil, fresh cow shit, rotten meat and unkempt Frenchman.. both in the nose, in the mouth and in the long aftertaste. Throw the wine on your friends with a rustic paté, some suspect cheese and some bitter salad. For connoisseurs, furious French and great theater, chapeau!

Loving this wine., it's really tasting great right now, but I would definitely drink it within the next year. Delicious, good food wine or with a cheese appetizer/dessert.

Higher toned floral and brett nose that smells like dryer sheets. Gritty old school palate that still seems to have plenty of life left. So similar to the entry cuvee, just with more of everything.

Floral, ripe berries, and brett. On its own, it was a little much, but with braised beef, it was quite good.
