This was drinking great. Upon opening it has a beautiful bouquet and had a multi-dimensional rhubarb scent and taste and then smoothed into a strawberry spice on the U-V. Wine is solid and drinking window is wide open
Way better than the dead 06 Aubert Ritchie.

Pours with medium density. Cherry jolly rancher nose. Candied cherry front that has a hint of anise and cola. Middle is darker fruit for sure. Finishes with good acidity and very round. QUITE lovely. Not over the top. NOT in the gutter. The structure on this one is massive. Gotta love it! This will hold another 5 years but it is in such a great place right now, why wait?

Delicious pure strawberry fruit, soft and mellow, slightly hot, excellent structure, ample finish, lacked depth and complexity of flavors, not worth the price of $125 at release

Still a beautiful wine, but just past peak, on the way down
