Wow. This tastes just like … a Bourgogne rouge made by William whitehead. What a coincidence.
You get that succulent sexy fruit without as much of the complexity of the better terroir. Which is what you want some nights.
Nose: earth sexy cherries. Hints of cherry liquor.
Palate: full on mid to late season cherry. Cherry liquor. Hints of cherry licorice.

Great nose of spice dark red cherries, some plum and a meatiness. Decaying. leaves and huge minerals. Expansive. Palate has that extraordinary Rebourgeon fruit wrapped in silk. Gorgeous finesse here. Long and juicy. Black and red cherries galore. So well made. — a month ago

Bu sur + de 3 heures, aération en carafe à l’ouverture. Arômes de fruits noirs, cerises, assez végétal. Belle couleur rubis! La carafe lui a fait un grand bien malgré ses 15 ans. Bien que le 1er verre m’a donné une légère incertitude mais le tout c’est replacé rapidment et le vin est tout simplement magnifique!
En bouche, il y a de la matière, belle acidité qui garde la structure du vin. En bouche, la mure, l cerises noires, un peu végétale, boîte à cigare. Tres long en bouche. Wow! — 2 years ago
Nose: freshly cut flowers. Cherry flowers. Violets. Hand crushed early midseason cherries. Magnificent. As this opens some swirling spice. Terrific amplitude.
Palate: man. What amazingly fresh cherry juice. Utterly delicious. Some spice. So fresh.

Nose is buttery and rich with stunning clarity. Lime zest, minerals and some dried soil tones as well. Palate is nervy and tense with tons of saline and green apple. Very juicy and delineated. Really precise stuff. Terrific acids and lovely mineral wash on the finish. Great wine. — 20 days ago
