Last bottle :( loads of spice and rose petal jumps all over the slightly under ripe blackberry. Cardamom, clove, thyme & rosemary nose evolved in the glass to dried rose and deeply ripe strawberry macerated with a pinch of ginger. Mondeuse is loudest at first, Pinot kind of reins it in and delivers the structure, Gamay carries the weight and lets the blend sing long after the wine is gone from the palette. Delicious and complete. Paired w/ garam lamb & mushroom

Bought from Winery in 2023, properly stored at home. Deep black center with violet edges, vivid fennel & mustard seed nose dominates fruit at first. Blackberry and floral as it is in the glass longer. Rounded but aggressive tannin excellent with fatty brisket. Long nearly ripe blackberry finish. Gorgeous wine, I may try to hold out to 2032 for my last bottle. Cork was perfect, as if it was 6 months old.
