    February 21, 2019 - Popped and poured. Gentle aroma of roses and cinnamon. Mix of flavors, including soft red fruit, mint, and a bit of spicy rhubarb. Silky finish. This is delicate, with mutable flavors supported by a solid backbone. A little VA on first opening, which goes away almost immediately. Lovely wine.

    May 6, 2015 - Quite effusive nose. Cherry pit and florals as well as a sprinkling of dusty spice on the nose and palate. A smidge of strawberry jam adds welcome sweetness and counterpoint to the higher notes. Great balance as always with Sunier. This bottling, though more floral and brighter than his Morgon, doesn't disappoint. 12% abv.
