September 4, 2023 - Initially, no aromas/depth. Decanted. By hour two, this began to show it's depth, but admittedly still young and in need of several more years. Light-moderate aromas of cherries and red berries. Similar flavors, with light-moderate tannins. Fresh. Barely enjoyable now, but worth waiting. Revisit 2026+. 92+

May 22, 2023 - Flurry of Fleurie: Super concentrated. This is _serious_ Fleurie, I definitely would not guess this blind. It has the red fruit but it's just turned up to 11 instead of being light and delicate. Tons of complexity, great acidity (surprising for a 2015!) and a lovely balanced finish. I preferred the 2014 but this is also great.

November 15, 2021 - Concentrated red cherries, sandalwood, forest floor, cèpes de Bdx... Huge concentration of red salty and sappy cherries, super delicious, 30 sec finish.
