September 24, 2023 - First of three and it was delicious! Concentrated dark fruit. Good from gitgo. Drink or hold.

August 5, 2023 - In a great place - fruit fades after 2 hours so give a shorter decant

July 24, 2023 - Trio de Châteauneuf à Minogami (Lac Minogami): Ouverts 8 heures à l’avance.
Nez discret, floral, sur les épices. Belle bouche équilibrée, c’est plein, savoureux, bonne fraîcheur. Ampleur aromatique charmante, finement épicée, finale précise et complexe. Excellent. 93 pts
Malheureusement un côté très bretté sort après 40 minutes, ruinant le nez, ce qui le rend vraiment moins attrayant. Dommage, c'était mon préféré du trio au début. 90 pts -

July 19, 2023 - Two hour decant. Lots of bright red fruit on the nose along with some pencil shavings (kinda weird but clearly part of this wine). Paired beautifully with grilled chicken and a Thai tofu soup. Faded a little after a few more hours being open, so may be game time for this one.

May 29, 2023 - Bottle was opened 5 hours before consumption and nothing seemed to note flaws, but upon poring first glass it became obvious that wine has been oxidized. :-(
