  Full bottle 1313g. Moderately intense, very pretty aromas of sweet berries with herbal and floral notes. Dry, with elevated fresh acidity, modest tannins, medium-bodied, with a little coffee-like bitterness, followed by a long raspberry and fraises de bois finish. 14.5% abv, and maybe there is a little heat, but otherwise lovely.

  Bottle 1313g. Aromas of moderate to elevated intensity, ripe black and red fruit, tart berries, herbal and floral notes, sweet spice. Needs some oxygen to start dancing. Dry, with moderate to elevated acidity, moderate, smooth, drying tannings, full-bodied, 14.5% abv. Saline finish. Fleshier, even meatier than some of its stablemates. Hefty for a Chiroubles. This should be gorgeous in about an hour.

  Bottle 1314g. Moderately intense aromas. Darker fruit than previous vintage: blackberry as well as black cherry and plum. Dry, with elevated fresh acidity, really energetic, modest tannins, medium-bodied, 14.5° — hard to believe. No heat or volatility, just a little "spiciness" on the palate. Long. Love this producer.
