December 21, 2023 - What a splendid result for a second wine in a difficult year. Very classic Cornas with iron, blood, tar, intense black fruit and a chalky finish. Still a young wine, but also young vines, which makes it approachable.

March 12, 2023 - March Rhônes (Chicago, IL): Drink up. This is showing its age and thinning out (not unlike the 2002 Cornas, honestly). Fully mature and on the downslope, with a leathery tone to the relatively light red fruit.

December 10, 2022 - In a great spot Everything has come together. Wine showed some red-blue fruits, black pepper, bacon fat, and lots of olive tapenadez. The structure was well defined with medium to medium plus acidity and well integrated but pronounced tannin. Lovely wine. Drink now and enjoy!

October 22, 2022 - Popped and poured. Aromas of red fruit and bacon. Gentle flavors of blackberry, dry leaves. Olive notes in the rich finish. Elegant, soft with a solid backbone, complex. Excellent.

February 14, 2022 - Stunning wine. Fantastic black fruit alongside a little development. Tannins assure a long life, but it's delicious now. One of the best Northern Rhones I've ever had.
