    June 21, 2021 - PnP. On the nose cool elegant red fruit (strawberry mostly) developing in ashy and earthy tones, pronounced yet enjoyable acidity, nice tannins, medium finish. Burgundian style.

    January 20, 2021 - Took awhile to open up but once it did this was enjoyable. Cherry driven nose and palate with subtle earthy tones. Tannins are up front and sneaky, but well-integrated. High acid balances nicely the red fruits and leaves a long finish.
    Not showing much evolution for 2015; I wonder what another few years would do.

    August 18, 2018 - Delicate smell with red fruits and scents of soil and ashes. The taste is very pleasant. Soft tannins, expressive with fruits but at the same time elegante. Looking forward to the next one I have, and will also try the 2016.

    May 20, 2018 - Sunday blinds (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. Light colour with lovely, crunchy red fruit on the nose. Delicate, pretty, and delicious, with red fruit on the palate as well. It's a very light wine with a hint of strawberry and some minerality -- had me going straight to Burgundy. Everything seemed to align with red Burgundy, in fact, I didn't pick up any volcanic sulphur aromas at all. Nevertheless, this is simply an incredibly delicious wine. I wonder how it'll age...
