ripe nose and tannins. cassis, greenness, tobacco. touch of brett. Some depth here but largely very tannic and unnresolved. Could grow into a silky, if midweight wine

A classic cab franc - deep, dark and brooding, even with the time in bottle. Dark fruit, leather, tobacco, medium long finish. Mid palate is slightly hollow, but otherwise a nice glass. Drinking really well, if you like the style.

Loire 2005 (Salle de dégustation Laurier): Un nez discret, moka, du poivron, du thé. La bouche est fraîche, ronde, élégante, mais parait terne face aux autres, avec des arômes de poivron, une impression un peu végétale. 88 pts

Très bon vin mais je resterais surtout client du domaine pour ses blancs, qui sont exceptionnels. (alors que les rouges ne sont que "très bons") :-) 16.5/20

Random Notes from Travels in France; 4/6/2012-4/14/2012 (Paris, Loire, Alsace): Medium ruby. Olives on the nose. Rich, tannic but much less exotic than the 2008 village wine the other night. Long. Needs time.
