  May 6, 2016 - Super funky and tart. Well rounded. Just a bit tart for me. Surprisingly funky. Definitely can taste the age.

  December 20, 2013 - 87-88+ Points. Served 62-66 degrees. Serially tasted over 3 hours.
  
  Off the nose, Rainier Cherries, Cranberries, Fresh Sweet Basil, Earth and Pepper Spice. Aromatically there's a great deal of complexity here and the nose is quite expressive and detailed.
  
  On the palate, very bright, tart red and white cherries, cranberries and sweet basil. There's a wall of acidity here that was nearly overwhelming which demanded greater aeration. With time, the wine gained greater depth, more tamed acidity and notes of black cherries, smoked meats and cedar wood.
  
  Texturally the overwhelming acidity dominated the midpalate leading to a mouthfeel that was far too angular, disjointed and difficult to approach. This wine begged to be paired with food, but was unfortunately an impromptu opening after dinner. The pretty and detailed nose was its only saving grace, but overall it's a poor value.

  April 24, 2013 - Bu un verre de 14cl au 110 Taillevent :
  
  Nez avec une trace de fût neuf assez présente mais que j'apprécie car en harmonie avec le fruit. Bouche ample et gourmande avec des tanins très souples, alors que je m'attendais à quelque chose d'assez rustique. Acidité un peu trop présente mais sinon bon vin.
