PnP in a Grassl Cru. Really nice. Very drinkable: perfectly ripe strawberries. Good acids. Open from the beginning. Happy to have opened one of these shortly after delivery. I’m sure it will drink well for many years, but an excellent experience right now.

A better bottle than the one I opened a year ago. Decanted for sediment and consumed immediately over several hours in a Grassl Cru. A good choice for a snowy winter evening. A bit of alcohol on the nose when first opened. Herbal savory fruits with decent acidity backing it up. A satisfying rustic wine, decent value from WineBid at $30. Will hold my last bottle for a few more years.

Decanted and consumed in a Grassl Cru over several hours. Fairly open for business from the start. Medium body, elegant, mineral, nice acidity, fruity. Not a Bordeaux for those looking for power, but drinking quite nicely to my taste, although perhaps a bit generic in style. Poor QPR at greater than $50, but good for the close out price I paid 10 years ago.
