  Vibrant raspberry with a touch of earth/mineral.
  
  Medium acid and medium minus tannin. Elegant fruit-driven finish that mirrors the nose.
  
  The red fruit is beautiful, but looking for more at $180/bottle. This should improve with age, so there's that.

  I thought this was a fabulous rendition of Marechale. 21s in general seem charming, red fruited, texturally fine grained, with bright acidity and open for business. This wine is no exception, and the note of white pepper is really prominent on the finish. In a lovely spot and I’m going to try and source a few of these.

  Strong effort. Balanced and nuanced, with a red fruit core with hints of white pepper on the palate. Has a fine tannic spine with just the hint of herbaceousness. Lovely with food.

  Hold for a few years. PnP which was mad but what the heck: Showed much better with air obviously but don't listen to the others here, it definitly needs some time.

  Drinking very well at this early stage.
  
  Well balanced, the oak treatment is not too much even this early on a thin vintage. Red fruit, spice, very fresh and long. I don’t see much structure and tannins here even if it is NSG. I would probably drink my other 2 before their tenth anniversary.
