2022/5/22&24. Round and spicy on day 1, with some richness on the nose; the palate has some juice but is somewhat we lighter than the nose might suggest. 48 hours later, it’s shed the fat and is leaner and more angular. — a month ago
2022/5/8-9 with koshiabura tempura, pork-wrapped Yanaka ginger, etc... a nice mix of sweet, rounded berry fruit, high-toned floral notes, woodland and a touch of oak influence typical for Faiveley but under control. Juicy acidity is the main structural element , with some fine tannin. Not super deep or rich, but very drinkable with multiple facets to examine. — 2 months ago
Lemon candy, lime zest, tart apple, and passion fruit in the bouquet with some woody cedar and interesting notes of cold steel, wool, lanolin, and hard/minerally spring water. On the palate mild yellow apple and subtle notes of lemon pith and grapefruit oil, lemon cream puff mid-palate, and grippy white-tea tannins on a medium-length finish. Alcohol just a hair on the stiff side but overall wonderfully done. — 13 days ago
2022/5/8-9 with koshiabura tempura, pork-wrapped Yanaka ginger, etc. High toned fruit, bramble and a touch of oak. Not especially complex or deep clean and better on day 1 (with day 2 revealing a bit more green), but enjoyable and a neat value as a villages at this price. — 2 months ago

This Mazis was kicking! Delicious. Sappy red fruits, notes of tea. Hedonistic. — 8 days ago
