  September 23, 2023 - Very nicely made, if note hugely complex. Nose cherry and a bit of vegetable and bell pepper. Palate has solid acid and good mineral extract. Fruit well supported. A tad green, not « great » in classic sense but honest and well made.

  August 7, 2023 - Pretty classic Loire. dark cherry, hint of bell pepper, mineral. Good acid, strong structure, bright fruit. A bit green note. Would’ve thought cab franc.

  March 18, 2022 - Lots of cherry fruit, medium body, some acidity but overall well balanced. Excellent value for a very drinkable everyday red.

  March 13, 2022 - Darker fruits—blueberry, a touch of dried black cherry and a hint of prune—have emerged to give a very nice harmony, balancing an underlying acidity.

  October 7, 2020 - Consistent with half a year ago, still tastes like a young Syrah with dark fruit, an oily mouth feel and a bitter finish. Mellowed out after two hours of air. Continue to hold.
