    May 26, 2022 - There’s a good wine here hiding behind some mild brett and oxidation.

    February 24, 2019 - Open for business. Lingering and complex. An intense Malbec. Pair well with escargot. Paired well with dry rub Memphis ribs.

  • ChateauDutremble Likes this wine: 93 points

    December 31, 2018 - NY Eve tasting of 6 wines: nose of candied fruit, dark cherry, menthol, spices...burnt caramel, and some floral notes as well...quite complex. Big fruit flavours with hints of olive pits and cherry pits. Discreet tannins. Rich and smooth. Medium finish. Average score from six tasters: 93...funny, a favorite for three...not for the other three compared to the other wines.
