May 4, 2024 - Drinkable but definitely exhibiting some overaged flavors.

More enjoyable with a meal at present. I had previously noted to check back in 2025, and I think that will be my next try (91+).

April 11, 2023 - Intriguing, rustic old style Bandol with layers of complexity and enticing aromatics. We had a great tasting with JP, great place to visit. Not for those obsessed with fruit, polish and lack of what experts call flaws.

July 8, 2022 - Dark garnet. Pronounced nose. Blackberry, cassis, spice - pepper, liqourice, earth, smoke, chocolate. Developing. Med+ acidity, med fine tannins, well integrated, med+ alcohol (14%), full body. Long finish. Outstanding quality, can be drunk now but suitable for further ageing.
