  December 18, 2017 - An enjoyable weeknight sipper, this is very aromatic after some air, with green herbs, soil and black cherry notes; Palate is still somewhat austere, suggesting this could use a few more years to fully integrate

  March 3, 2017 - Mulchy, tomato leaf, sauteed green bell pepper, tea leaf and raspberry nose. Smells like an herbarium. Palate has an herbal coolness about it, with a seam of blueberry, minerals, green olives, and funky damp soil. There's still some tannin to soften here but a terrific inner sweetness tucked behind it that betrays all the greenness. A very enjoyable wine to swirl and sniff, somewhat less fun to drink.

  August 18, 2016 - This is drinking very well today. Love the aromatics and cool weather style without any hard edges or overt green character.

  January 2, 2016 - rather tight and ungiving when opened - but after 30mins in the decanter opened up very well. pepper and cherry / raspberry fruit - very fresh. Certainly no rush

  September 23, 2015 - Nez de terre fraichement retournée, de fruits rouges mûres à point, de poivron, de humus et de "bubblegum". La bouche est bien balancée et démontre une fraiche acidité. On y retrouve les mêmes flaveurs qu'au nez. Se termine sur une saine amertume. Meilleur bouteille que la dernière.
