    July 1, 2023 - Very medicinal and disjointed. Just out of balance and hard to tell how much of that is due to the cool vintage vs the producer. Lacking acidity and just not very appealing at this stage

    December 2, 2022 - Wine evening (Restaurant Krietsch, Schwäbisch Gmünd): Popped and poured. Clear, deep glowing ruby color. Very smoky, mineral nose with some iron and fine red fruit.
    On the palate not as precise as the Huber, still very young and not fully developed. Oak still dominant. Mineral, balanced, juicy, very fine tannin. Wait 5+ years. 92+

    March 12, 2021 - Dense red. Still reduced on the nose, with plenty of spices, bitter chocolate coming from stems and barrel. Obviously a long elevage on its lees. The mouth has some brett so here I reserve my judgement. After 10 years, still show chocolatey bitterness, strict tannins, biting acidity. No pleasure at all here, and quite overrated for the price, although the Champeaux terroir emerges: coolness of the combes Lavaux, power, density, earthiness and minerality. Champeaux works better in warm years...Honestly, this is a wine for masochists, so if you like to be beaten, and pay a high price to be beaten, that's a wine for you.
    Note on the wood.Obviously a fine grained oak but I did not like the barrel toast that in my opinion goes against the sleek profile of the grapes in that cool vintage-the wood even after all these years still overshadows the fruit.
