    December 10, 2016 - Corked

    July 17, 2016 - Highly perfumed, mid-weight, elegant and open-knit. Complex aromatics of dried flowers, blue fruits, smoked meats and musk. It is silky in the mouth with a sensual feel and deliciously sweet, plump fruit. It is impeccably balanced and absolutely ready to go.

  • Sleepy Dave wrote:

    August 10, 2015 - Truffle, sous bois, mushroom, savory meatiness, sweet and sour plum and cherry. Good mouth feel and texture, it flows effortlessly, silky smooth as a great winemaking skill, every element is well integrated, harmony. Long, sweet and at the very end a touch bitter greenness which is the vintage character I was told. Drinking at its peak now and unlikely to improve. Drink up.

    July 25, 2015 - Brooding, rootish , stewed red autumnal fruits , sous bois and leather. A mixed bag of chambolle, morey and gevrey I thought. Mid weight on the palate with a silky smoothness to the delivery.

    January 11, 2014 - Aromatically this wine was gorgeous. Continuously shifting with complex aromas. The palate was a bit of a let down. I love structure in a wine, but it seemed to dominate this wine tonight. I'm being critical here, the wine was super good, but it was Rousseau after all. I guess I was hoping for a bit more, but the nose was fantastic.
