March 30, 2021 - Really like this showing, old world without being overly rustic. Medium intensity aromatics of plum, black cherry, bell pepper, leather, forest floor - very fresh and focused. Medium plus flavors, red plum, blackberry, cherry, and wet fall leaves. Enjoy with a meat and cheese plate.

July 2, 2020 - Medium ruby color with quick, clear legs and no sediment. Lovely, light intensity nose of flowers and spices with hints of smoke. Light body with good, firm acidity and young tannic balance. Flavors have some complexity, which includes a little strawberry, plum, fig, and mango notes. Medium finish and enough structure to carry a few more years. Better closer to room temp than cellar temp.

February 6, 2020 - Des arômes de fruits bleus, de notes torréfiées et de réglisse. Même chose en bouche, quoique un peu plus complexe sur la graphite et de la mineralité. Un vin passe partout assez souple et long.
