April 22, 2024 - Tasted blind. Spicy and meaty N. Rhone wine with some oak, pepper, and a touch of alcohol on the finish. Still young.

March 4, 2024 - Dinner with Franck Balthazar (Skai): From a magnum, elegant aroma of red and blue fruits, touch of rose, incense.

March 4, 2024 - Chaillots vertical with Franck Balthazar: My favourite early doors, classy and elegant while being beautifully proportioned. Developed some tertiary soy notes with air though. Most old-school Cornas in the line-up which appealed to me.

October 21, 2023 - Lots of dark spice on the nose, roasted nuts, rosemary, blackberries,
Tannins still firm and present but they are ripe and relax to reveal, old leather, herbs, fresh acidity, chestnuts, liquorice and violets.
Ageing beautifully, becoming softer and more COte Rotie-like the longer it's open but still meaty and powerful.
No hurry to drink. -

Smack in your face.👊
Massiv frukt og bra struktur.
Skikkelig bra greier, men bør lagres videre.
Satt som et skudd til reinsdyr.
