  March 17, 2020 - Light shone thru, some orange hues near the rim. savory smoky briny nose. Palate is very dry, with a hint of fruit. More acid than tannin propelling the finish. Not great but not bad considering the vintage.

  January 11, 2016 - Decant for at least 1-2 hours. My wife and I both LOVE this wine! It has that lovely squeaky dry tannic finish that lingers in your mouth long after the wine has been swallowed.
  Honestly, this is the style of wine that we both seek out when buying French wines. Fantastic!
  Please comment if you find other wines like this. Thanks

  May 21, 2015 - as predicted, it's had its time, decent evening tv wine - little tannins left.
  the body is not bland but doesn't stay that long in mouth.
  hard to detect striking notes but it drinks itself well
