  November 25, 2019 - Natural wine from old vines, whole cluster fermented, aged in old barrels. Deep red color. Ripe nose, blackberries, some hint of black pepper. Mouth is fresh, tannins present but smooth. Balanced. 12.5% but with personality. Very good. And despite the nose feeling older, it should age for a few more years.

  April 8, 2019 - Perfectly ripe berry fruits and all sorts of agricultural and mineral nuance. There were some green bean Syrah notes, coupled with menthol and wild herb notes and a suggestion of smoked meats. It had good presence in the mouth, with a fresh clean finish and sneaky persistence.

  December 15, 2018 - Wow, I liked the 2014 a lot but this is a step up! Shock full of savoury notes of meat, sweet licorice, salt, pepper, bay leaf and black olives. There is fruit as well in the form of black currant and blackberries. Bursting with energy and drinkability even though it has a good tannin structure. I will continue buying this cuvée.

  April 15, 2018 - European nose but hard to place.
  Light fruit and fat on the nose.
  Bright magenta colour and thin runny legs.
  A bit closed at first blush w short benign clean finish.
  White pepper and bing cherry.
  Quite appealing for early drinking.
