Medium deep garnet, ruby core with medium light garnet rim . This is quite meaty and deep on the nose , with earthy dark cherry , porcini , sweet blackberry and spiced sous bois . On the palate this is quite severe and serious , darker fruits , ripe blackberry , cherry and hint of blackcurrant, herbal hints. Quite gritty , slightly drying tannins , fresh acidity . Earthy , dusty dark cherry edged finish , ok medium length. Quite ambitious for a village and arguably not ready yet , tannins need a little more time to integrate. From now and over the next 5 years, if not longer . — 10 months ago

Pure fruit- strawberry/cherry, some dusty tannins and a hint of smokiness makes this quite nice. — 4 years ago

2021 vintage. First go-round with this wine. Winery produces “pretty” wines and this is no different. Medium-medium heavy bod. Consistent, smooth push with dried cranberry leading the charge. No heart-stopping or scary moments. Enjoyable. 3.13.26. — 3 months ago

Still showing a lot of tannic and acidic structure, but enough fruit to keep it in check once it had a few hours of air, youthful still, and brawny. — 2 years ago

Opened yesterday. The nose is very syrahesque right now with blackberry, black pepper, violette, and almost a tiny touch of black truffle. The palate is fresh, broad, with a nice blackberry and pepper typical note, a very soft mouthfeel, some good grip in the rear and that tannic layer carries on over the finish. The finish is long and fruity with the same peppery and blackberry notes, but a tiny bitter note comes about in the end to lift the wine. It's fresh and lively and not really muscular like some Rhône example can be. The vineyard is planted at 600m above see level so maybe this is the reason. It's great stuff from Hervé Bizeul.
I tasted it 2 months ago with friends in a social setting and liked it a tad bit less than now. — 10 months ago

2019 vintage. Obvs super youthful and that translates here to a large, super fresh lime component. Better than good mineral presence. The crisper side of Meursault. — 3 years ago
