After the Sicilian off dry white which I drank only a glass of in disappointment, I decided to open something I knew would make me happy. We are watching Dunkirk while drinking this wine and the contrast between the on-screen drama and the funky liveliness in the glass is stunning!
As usual the nose is a bit funky at fist and takes a good 20 to 30 minutes to set into place. Then it's violet, blueberry, clay, that iron thing too, which I always smell in this cuvée, no matter the vintage. The palate is big, bright and fruity. There are blueberry notes all along, some cherry too. Some width, a nice and soft mouthfeel, some tannins in the rear, and a really nice anf long finish with fruits, some pepper, and a nice tannic layer. There is a subtle savory note too, almost meaty, that makes it more complex than you would have bet at first. Of course this is, as always, a very biased review, but I mean, what's not to like there? — 9 months ago
A beautiful blend. Lemon and a bit of orange on the palate. Nice acidity. Great with chicken. September 2024. — a month ago

Delicious and very classic. Nose is bright, minerally, and brothy. Deeply flavored, with ripe apple veering into other orchard fruits and loads of minerality. Acids are medium. Great length. Nicely done. — 16 days ago
