  This isn't going to blow anyone away, but at $20/bottle it was a great buy. Really nice to have a weekday wine with such age and complexity. Red fruit still going with plenty of classic cab franc notes.

  Russk. Austere, but soft. Earthy-bretty, but clean. A beautiful paradox. 92+.

  Largely consistent with previous note; last bottle from a Garagiste purchase. This bottle was still pretty drinkable but a bit more flat than I remember the last one being. Fruit is definitely on the subtle end now. Would drink up if you have any.

  Loved the metallic and brambly and blue fruit nose. Palate was interesting but complete lack of tannins made this overly soft and flat. Would have liked to try it 5 years ago. A fine experiment for $20 from Garagiste

  This was puzzling. I’d say half the flavor was nicely aged franc and the other half was cork-ish taint. The first half kept me from tossing this down the drain but i kept it going more for the experiment than for the enjoyment. Drink this now if you still have any but beware!
