  A little tired and the fruit is dried out. Good savory complexity but it’s just barely hanging on

  Showing very well. Light color. Good core of sour cherry fruit, some complex herby/spicey aromas around the edges. Not a simple quaffer but not ponderous either. Reminded me of a good Savigny 1er Cru. A bargain at $30.

  Absolute wow wine... Solid core of so ripe and bright black cherry, slate shavings, bay, and on and on. Really continued to open over an hour. Aeration highly recommended and watch out for very fine sediment.

  Rated on current form. Much better and `together' on the second day. So I am quite convinced that this wine will (much) benefit from further cellaring. If you want / need to have a crack it now already, better heed the advice from some of the previous gentlemen and make good use of a decanter.

  Stunning wine that feels as though from Burgandy in every which way. Precise, clean, bright linear dark red fruit. Taut acids with just enough grip. Gave an hour or so in the decanter.
