June 28, 2016 - Similar to other notes, plenty of Brett on the nose -- but in a good, meaty gamey raw steak bloody animal sort of way. It's a matter of taste -- I love that in wine. Gives sense of place immediately to me. At first the palate had a very odd finish -- an astingent quality. I Vinturied every pour after that note and the wine began to sing.

May 16, 2015 - Creamy nose with something like tamarind. Dark ruby color nearly opaque. Full flavored red with a touch of sweetness. Juniper berry nuance. Good overall balance and length. Some heat noticed on the finish. Tannins are light.

March 15, 2011 - 2006 Chateauneuf du Papes (and a white CdP starter) (Vin Vino Wine, Palo Alto, CA): Bretty on the nose. Juicy, fresh dark red fruit on the palate giving way to oak and tannin. No evidence of brett on the palate.
