  March 24, 2013 - Joyful nose with plenty of fruits with a touch of stems. Gourmand, sometimes almost pinot like, back and forth between red fruits (strawberry, cherry) and darker fruits. Nice little structure. Like it !

  November 7, 2012 - Needed some air to open up, but when it did had a great floral nose of crushed red berries. Razor-like palate, with energetic acidity hitting the palate, and pur cherry pit, licorice, and cranberry flavors. Moderate palate, with a little earth mixed in. Very nice, expressive wine, with tons of acidity. Is a great food wine and has some structure to age a bit.

  September 4, 2012 - Right off the bat, this smelled crunchy, with tart raspberries and cranberries dominating things. But WOW was it tart, so into the decanter with you Monsieur Bojo. After about 1-2 hours, the edges softened and the finish lengthened, so by the time we plated, the wine was still super crisp but much friendlier. Beautiful crisp red fruits and berries, and a mid-length finish that ended with bright acidity. Very good with some chicken and rice, and shockingly delicious with a salad in a tart vinaigrette. In fact, it went better with the salad than the main dish. Very nice but definitely needs food.
