December 17, 2016 - Perfumed nose, violets and blackberry jam. Light bodied, nice acid, somewhat sour, vegetable mid palette. Very pretty wine.

August 16, 2016 - Corison visit- 8/12/16: Aromas of rose hips, currant, dried violets, and clove. Lean in style on the palate, with mineral-driven red cherry flavors, along with underlying spice, florals and minerality. Elegant, with fine tannins, and a dry, clean finish.

May 13, 2016 - Blue and red fruit, white pepper, cassis. Bright and juicy palate, ample acid, refined tannin. Cherry, blueberry, blackberry. Ready now, but I think this will age well as I detect some savory herb and spice quality underlying the pretty primary fruit. Has the structure to age gracefully.
