December 21, 2023 - Beautifully integrated nose, with some wet soil starting to emerge. A dark, gentle core of fruit. Mid-palate is dense, almost pleasantly chewy. Slightly bracing, but refreshing, finish – the acid and tannin is in a nice spot right now. A really delicious, fun wine.
A side note: tasted the 2013 Paul Jaboulet Domaine des Pierrelles alongside this. The two wines, at this stage of development at least, were *very* similar.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 22, 2023 - nice blend of earthy tones, tobacco leaf with black plum and blackberry - this is a medium weight wine that relies on interplay and nuance than power. Lovely

October 5, 2023 - Stunning wine. So rich and with incredible depth but yet everything in balance. Nothing to suggest this wine will likely outlive me.

May 19, 2023 - Concentrated and powerful dark fruit with good balance and long finish. Just needs patience to achieve its peak.

November 24, 2022 - Dark, dense and powerful red fruit. Tannins are soft with a long finish. At this point it is a bit opulent and lacks the elegance compared to a 2012-Chave Hermitage tasted alongside. It is accessible now but should improve with age.
