Cherry, tobacco, and blueberry. Light bodied but still rounded and bold. I like this, would love to pair with a lamb chop. — a year ago
2016 vintage. 62% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark red with some orange evolution on the rim. Raspberries and cedar wood , with truffles lurking in the background. Medium-bodied, with slightly jammy red fruit. The tannins are not as velvety as both the 2020 and 2022, but still there is a good balance,complexity and length. Maybe closing down a bit, the future will tell. However, I don't see this ever reaching the level of the 2020 and certainly not 2022. Outperformed by the 2016 Couvent des Jacobins tasted alongside.

Very solid village Vosne. Quite plush and concentrated mouthfeel for a Burg, with fruit towards the darker spectrum and characteristic spice of Vosne. Med acid and fine tannin. — 2 months ago

Bright and exciting with plenty of structure, fruit and beauty to cellar a few more year but why, enjoy!!! — a year ago
2019 vintage. Another great second wine from Cru Classé Couvent des Jacobins. Elegance, purity of fruit, velvety tannin, freshness, and very good length. This definitely has some of the class of the grand vin, in a more immediately approachable style. Abv. 14,5%. — 2 years ago

Second pour of Gamay and it doesn’t disappoint, fresh fruit, velvety tannins, and great balance. This wine has nice fresh red fruit, spices and a bit black pepper and a delight!! Enjoying with chicken and pasta dish, perfect pair!! — a month ago
