Burgnick Likes this wine: 91 points
September 24, 2023 - It certainly possessed the high end Napa cult finesse but the mid palate did not have enough substance to justify the price tag. 91-92

August 12, 2023 - Full bodied, dry and dusty, dried strawberries, licorice, arid air, and oddly has a small note of yogurt and candied red fruit.

September 22, 2022 - Grapes for Great Causes: Older SQN and SE Flight ‘06-‘09 (Les Nomades Chciago): The most potential for aging with the old world, dusty, earthy, smoke finish. With the addition of the Cab Franc this wine will be singing in 5+years.
Overall, this was truly educational to try these wines all together. -

September 19, 2021 - No detailed notes on this one, but it was quite good. Had been decanted for 3 hours or so. Qualitatively it was not out of place with the Bordeaux, though I did get a bit too much sweetness on the palate.

Elpaninaro Likes this wine:
September 17, 2021 - deep purple red color, sweet nose of liqueur, strawberries and cherries, oak notes, on the palate a punchy and ripe profile again tending to be a bit sweet, fine long finish with a bit of warmth, light suggestions of herbal notes around the edges, built in the model of its bigger sibling- this is all about the moment but has the structure and competence to be taken seriously from a qualitative perspective.
***+, ready to drink but time in hand
