April 16, 2024 - exactly the same note... it has balance, shortish length, good intensity, ok complexity... some finesse but a but muddled, a fine texture, good expression of place. i'm left a bit disappointed. drink up.

March 15, 2024 - By the bottle at Barolo Grille in Denver. Decanted for a couple hours. Nose is savory with olive brine, white pepper, beef broth, red berries. Palate is fresh and herby with rosemary, hint of orange peel, red licorice, clay, green olives, white pepper, cherries. Very precise, especially as it opens up. Lighter body than i expected, nice finish with good balance between tannins and acidity.

March 8, 2024 - A nice Crozes with olives and white pepper in the nose. It needs some time to open up. But once it does, it show all its qualities. Maybe a step below the 2015 but still a very nice northern Rhone.
