Took a long time to open after 20 years. Plenty of Brett influence, but on the leather side, not unpleasant. Rich, dark cherry, fairly thin body, tannins are super mellow at this point. — 3 months ago

Layered, complex, beautiful. Opens with cherries, blood, plums, blueberries, dry leaves and licorice. Fine grained tannins. Perfect after a few hours in the decanter. Will last at least another decade. — 20 days ago
Just delicious on this outrageously hot evening. Pristinely pure strawberry and cherry fruit on the nose, with a fair whack of crushed rock. Crisp and flavorful in the mouth, with good intensity and freshness. Good acids and an attractive micro-note of bitterness at the tail end. IMHO, well-made Sancerre rose is the pinnacle of rose. — 2 months ago

Deep purple , thin ruby pink rim . Spicy cassis , touch of coconut , violets , blackberry liqueur and meaty, orange rind , slightly medicinal , iodine character . On the palate lovely density , blackcurrant , blackberry , saline and mineral reflexes . Lots of fine , polished quite dry tannins and surprising freshness . Long mineral stained finish , vanilla and cassis stained finish . After a while in the glass this really starts to show its mineral , crushed rock and iodine character. Intense and hugely powerful but also incredibly well balanced , with no warmth from the 14,5% alcohol, finishes dry and savoury , a real feat of engineering! Needs another 10-15 years and will last well a further 15-20 — 8 days ago
