January 20, 2024 - Good match for Steak frittes and béarnaise sauce! Requires hearty/fatty food otherwise too dry. Not pleasant on the palate on it own.

December 28, 2021 - Still pretty tight. Needs a robust food pairing. Had it with venison, would probably go better with a more fatty protein.

December 25, 2019 - Black, almost opaque. Dark berries, stone dust, some oak, hints of cedar/pencils. Sandy tannins, high acidity, fruit red berries and some hints of dried fruit. Good balance. Aftertaste fairly long, lingonberries. Will last longer. Nice wine.
