September 25, 2016 - Not quite as good as the 2009 vintage I'd had previously. Flavors are similarly good, but the finish is shorter.

August 26, 2016 - This is the back-up bottle tonight, and unfortunately it's not much better. Weak nose, very little fruit, and fades fast. Not sure how Wine Spectator rated this so high! Maybe they had my prior bottle first and it skewed their thinking!

June 22, 2016 - A very California-tasting French. Sweet, but masculine musk on the nose; vibrant tartness and strawberry on the palate -- really gets the taste buds going. Very much down my alley, and the first French I've genuinely enjoyed.
Just a tad bit watery.1 person found this helpful Comment -
