  February 20, 2020 - Earthy red and black fruit on the nose.
  
  Seamless and expansive on the palate - my wife didn't care for it, but I like this quite a bit tonight. Lighter-bodied, but has nice nuanced feel to it.

  August 9, 2019 - Wow! Dark fruited though there is a hint of something brighter in the background. Fantastic nose that is both fruity and savory. Tons of earthy, damp, forest floor types flavors running through this. Enough acidity to balance but not super high acid. Definitely a family resemblance to the val d'aosta wines of Donna's but this is much fuller and more dark fruited. Big hit with everyone at dinner, both wine geeks and normal folk.
  
  One slight note - the last pour a few hours later seemed to retreat into its shell a bit, so recommend pop n pour right now.

  June 27, 2019 - Bright cherry fruit. Some hints of minerality. Reminds me a bit of really good Beaujolais. It also has some elements to it that remind me of N. Rhone Syrah. Tasty.

  June 11, 2015 - Au restaurant, pas de notes formelles. Non carafé. Vraiment sur les fruits, cerises avant tout, très typé cornalin. Trop jeune, mais offrant une belle bouche croquante.
