February 24, 2024 - Bu avec LES FOUDUVIN Chapitre Estrie au
Resto AVV La Suite de Sherby jeudi le 22-Février-2024.
Mieux que les autres bues dernierement.
Assez ample et rond, on a une petite impression de glycérine.
Fruit dense et extrait, primare certains ont mentionnés.
Les tannins sont charnus et la finale très longue.
Un peu brute et tape à l'oeil.
Bien dans ce style. -

November 18, 2023 - OMG. This so delicious. Pure blackcurrant, blue plum, coffee grinds, truffle, mushroom on the nose. On the palate, so delicious now, really come around after many years so closed. Red fruits, smoke, fantastic acid fruit balance. Absolutely at its peak. I’m scoring high based on pleasure, rather than intricate complexity.
