    December 22, 2018 - Souper des Fêtes chez Oana et Adam: Une bouche évoluée sur les épices, la garrigue, on dirait un Châteauneuf léger, avec de l’âge. Très agréable, mais il parait plutôt léger. Avec l'aération, il affiche davantage de chair, la profondeur naturelle du terroir s’affirmant peu à peu. Une qualité que je situais au niveau d'un bon premier crû, sans plus. 90-91 pts

    August 22, 2018 - Enjoyed this bottle more than I thought I would. Fruit was very pure and this wine has plenty of acidity and fruit to hold for quite a while. I will hold off on my other bottles for another 5 years but it is already pretty darn good!

    March 11, 2018 - Monthly Tasting Group: Blind Pinots Worldwide (The Kenwood, Mpls, MN): DOA. Too bad, this should have been fun.

    February 14, 2015 - The colour is becoming noticeably brown. Slightly muted nose, showing raspberry and cherry fruit. The palate appears slightly faded, although there is still some intensity and weight to the fruit, together with well developed secondary flavours. This bottle was probably slightly past its best.

    August 16, 2014 - Saturday Night Double Blind, $40+ (Bin 75): Pale crimson core with large rim, see through; pretty nose, tart cherry, mushroom, mahogany; still quite expansive and powerful, tart cherry, good tannin and dry extract, sour cranberry; could have used more air but this was very good.
