  September 14, 2018 - Nigel P in Bath (Clayton’s kitchen, Bath): Very dark. Fragrant, slightly pricey nose. Dense. Not burgundy as one knows it, but regardless it’s dense, dry, oaky, uncompromising and to my palate, unpleasant. No thanks.

  January 6, 2016 - Slightly rustic and closed
  Lots of concentration though and very ripe fruit
  Revisit with more age

  November 27, 2015 - Super rich, dark and extracted. Almost un-Burgundian. Still a very attractive wine. Drank straight after delivery, so might be even better when settled.

  October 23, 2015 - A Weekend in Ekatahuna; 10/22/2015-10/23/2015 (Ekatahuna, New Zealand): Fine example of a Burgundy in a challenging and hot vintage. The wine's fruit is not stewed, but there are hints of port and a slight translucent aspect to the fruit. The tannic structure is verging on rough, but this, combined with some exotic aromatics, add up to a wine of great character and plenty of nuance. Drunk before a Turley Petit Syrah, this had far less polish but far greater complexity. I can see why many would not admire the wine because of its slightly feral nature, but I consider it outstanding, considering it a true and successful representation of the vintage.
