  Really enjoyed this, was expecting a fruit bomb but it was quite subdued with great flavor. It’s definitely at peak, drink up.

  Comments echo my previous 4/2018 comments, however, this bottle was a little less flat, smoother, and somewhat more pleasant... maybe some bottle variation at play. Enjoyed this bottle, but dont wait, drink now!

  Medium dark garnet color, modest aromas of blackberry, and cedar forest. Earthy blackberry, with baking chocolate finish. I want this to be better, but something about it's kinda flat. Good enough to drink, but nothing special. Drink now, no improvement from here on out.

  This showed ripeness, Champoux terroir, and alcohol. Seemed a bit too flashy or over-the-top.

  Huge aromas of blackberry, plum, graphite, smoke, cocoa powder, red licorice, and earth. Blackberry, tart cherry, black cherry, spice, earth, and some heat on the palate Very good acidity, structure, and long finish. This should be a 92-93 pt wine, but unfortunately, there was too much noticeable alcohol for me. I still drank most of the bottle over several days though.
