May 18, 2019 - Clear, medium ruby color. Aromas of crushed stone, pressed flowers, juniper berries, allspice berries. Crisp raspberry & cherry fruit on the palate, with stony minerality, fresh florals and peppery depth. Medium-bodied throughout, with a fleshy structure, finishing with smooth juicy tannins. Very nice.

April 25, 2019 - Alpine wines (Dino's Grotto - Washington, DC): So much laffy taffy on the nose, along with pepper and black tea. The palate is dry, the tannins seem a bit bitter and green, medium acidity. Juicy purple fruit mixes with smoky earth, pepper and black tea. Interesting stuff, but not a very balanced wine. Maybe it deserved more time and air. Made from Mondeuse Noir.
