July 29, 2022 - Splash decanted off small amount of sediment. Cassis, leather and bell pepper on the expressive nose, same on the palate, except more red fruit. Begins savory, finishes with sweet tannins. Early maturity, plenty of life. Lovely.

January 26, 2017 - Breton Bourgueil Perrières Vertical (Arlequin Wine Merchant, San Francisco): This wine works. Bouquet to finish consistently classic cab franc: green pepper, black olive, gathered twigs. If I could tweak anything, I'd add a dollop of fruit. The [super knowledgeable] Kermit Lynch rep likes these cooler vintages best ... I'm somewhere in the middle. How great this would be in a blend with the '03!

September 24, 2014 - Interesting wine, but not my cup of tea. Good acidity, but I just don't like how these wines taste...too veggie and herbacious.
