April 10, 2024 - PnP. Gentle nose - cinnamon, spices, tart wild strawberries. Elegant and spiced, red fruited with some florals. A bit of earth and iron. Elegant and restrained. Finish is tart and red and somewhat bitter. I’m beginning to realize I really like M. Gaunoux’s style with their Rugiens and Epenots. This showed poorly the next night after being poured into small capped bottles for a zoom tasting. Nose - 5-5.5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 4.5-5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1-1.5/2 = 15.5-17/20.

October 29, 2021 - Beautiful floral, berry and plum nose. Chelan cherry, raspberry, beef stroganoff, earthy and palate filling; Incredible balance and a knockout for 2003 vintage.

September 10, 2016 - Opened at a tasting of Beaune Pinot Noirs, I thought this wine showed very well and is just entering its prime drinking window. Bright, medium ruby red; very little sediment. Elegant floral and earthy nose. Ripe red fruits (raspberry, cherry) cut by an earthy minerality makes both it approachable and interesting.

December 4, 2015 - Finished my only 2 bottles at my wine group's annual holiday lunch at Bibou. Tasted some from each bottle which were the same. Color showing maturity with slight browning at the rim and cherry at the core. Earthy nose with hints of licorice. Soft mature palate with cherry, raspberry, spice, earth and licorice. Nice balance and finish. I would drink up if you have it.
