Very delicate winemaking style with Oakville fruit. Really nice aromatics; blackberry compote, spiced blackberry jam, and some charcoal. Crushed red and black berries, crushed rocks and dried savory herbs. — 2 months ago

Insanely young, however just needed to try this. Double decanted, but still pretty much an impenetrable fortress. The nose is completely intoxicating; molasses, caramelized brown sugar, fresh Madagascar vanilla bean. The palate explodes with black and purple fruits; black plum, cassis, Christmas spice cake, blackberry tart, crushed allspice, deep mineral rich soil, field stones. Finishes with awesome structure. Bury this in the cellar for at least 5 years, more like 10. — 2 months ago

Unlike many other 13s this is ready to go. 1 hr decant and it’s singing. Gorgeous nose. Toasty oak, crushed red currants, and green herbs waft up. Plush and bright, with red fruit, some blue fruit, dusty earth, rocks. Finishes with dark cherry cordial. — 2 months ago

Smoke, flint, lemon and salt air on the nose. Crisp minerals, cracked granite, lemon curd. Soft and really well balanced. Solid village level Mersault. — 2 months ago

Whoa. Meaty and rich, with forest floor, sour cherry, and dusty mineral rich rocks. Roasted meat juices, savory herbs, freshwater creek stones. Really elegant and layered. Grand cru fruit shines. — 2 months ago
