  October 3, 2023 - Retail $20. Heavy bottle. Under DIAM5. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Light to medium color (at least for a Cabernet) with fairly impressive aromas of plum, blackberry, and cassis. There is also a distinct tartness that seems a bit out of place on the nose, but it is far from alarming. The palate is fruity, yes, but also quite light on its feet; this is by no means whatsoever a "heavy" Cab. While there is certainly a considerable amount of fruit, the acidity reigns on the palate, suggesting that some food is in order. I am thinking a boar bolognese.

  June 15, 2023 - Domaine Bousquet: Light purple color. The nose shows a mix of grilled black fruits, roasted figs, tart cranberry, with plenty of smoky earth, graphite, grilled steak and mushrooms, some anise and leather – lovely. On the palate, this shows a suave mix of medium acidity and smooth tannins with plummy, saucy fruit, like black cherries, roasted plums, currant jam, along with notes of pepper, anise, charcoal, minerals. Fresh and accessible but shows a lot of depth, balance, and flavors. Really solid for the price!
