  September 7, 2016 - Classic purplish color. The aroma is somewhat tied in the beginning. We will subsequently notice black olives, coffee, dark fruit and cherry core. The mouth feel a medium-bodied and fresh. A pleasant taste of Champis soda gossips about the healthy apple acids. We also taste Bregott spread on Finn Crisp. A small fruit sweetness in candyish shape soften the end. The oak is well integrated with a small blackened taste left. Some feel that the wine has opened up fully while others experience it somewhat immature. The recommendation is therefore to drink now or store, according to personal taste .

  February 10, 2016 - Robe beau cerise profond et brillant. Au nez, relativement expressif et complexe: cassis, framboise, cerise dans l'alcool, café, menthe, iris, caramel, épices, vanille et une légère note d'huile de lin rance agaçante mais qui s'est dissipé au cours de la soirée (Carafé 2 heures avant de servir). En bouche, c'est corsé et vif, acidité moyenne, finale moyenne légèrement râpeuse. Le fruit est là, généreux et épanouit mais il manque le zing de personnalité des grands vins. On sent beaucoup l'alcool pour 13,5%. Pourrait encore évoluer quelques temps mais pas tant... 2017-2018 max probablement.

  June 30, 2015 - Must have had an exceptional bottle last time because this bottle wasn't very good. Light, short finish, and not much fruit.
