A bit big for an 07. Good mixture of high-toned red > black fruit. This did not have any of the brett contamination that the winemaker had feared. There was a bit of something off in this wine. It carried through to a bottle of the Le Sud as well - a similar taste sensation that I can not put words to. Perhaps a contaminant? Not worth the listed price.

Same as last note. Drank with the 07 Le Sud and there was very little difference. Very good.

These continue to gain some weight and drink well. On night two this didn't fall apart like the last one did - it was very good.

Seems to have gained a little weight and is good to drink now.

Just a little better than the last bottle.
On day 2 though the fruit has faded a little - not bad but not as good as last night.
