  June 11, 2023 - This is.a firecracker of a wine if you can find it. It’s surprisingly deep, lush, and beautifully oaked for the heft. I’m surprised of its richness and its muscular body and depth. Here we have a crossover wine with deep and earthy Bordeaux bones, filled with a satisfying, sweet menthol and roasting eucalyptus vibe. Deep and tannic, the coarse mouth coating finish was bullying the 2000 lichine that was fighting for attention right next to it. Sensational value! Drink or Hold and color me impressed.

  December 16, 2021 - Cassis et bleuet, épices, barrique, ainsi que des notes florales. Tannins poussiéreux, fruit discret, ample et texturé...umami. Structuré et long avec une finale chaude sur les épices...un peu saline. Après aération, fruité avec des notes toasté. Meilleur avec le repas. Boire d'ici quelques années encore ou aérer au moins 30 minutes. 89++

  January 2, 2021 - Something on the nose I don’t like. Green grape stem? Mixed with red fruit.
  
  Pallet is nice. Easy drinking. Nice tannins that linger. Red fruit, blackberry, amazing lingering tannins. Solid 90-91 points.
