Laissez reposer! — 3 years ago
(My daughter’s dog Lena (short for Valtellina) photo-bombed the picture, even though she’s unrelated to this grape.) Feral nose has lots of iron, smoky earth, and funkified meat. Flavorful, medium-full, and relatively complex in the mouth. Mostly on the savory and earthy side, with lots of smoky gravel and only an undercurrent of fruit. Nice! — 5 years ago

Tasted blind while knowing the list of wines. Guessed the bottle. The first sniff reveals a fistful of peonies and violets (sorry, Lena), which led my thoughts to Fleurie. Add some sour cherries, strawberries, a tiny bit of barnyard, and underbrush. Sophisticated, concentrated, juicy, smooth, round and flavourful wine with good acidity. Wonderful evolution in the glass.

Beautiful aromas of ripe cherries and herbs. A smooth body with delightful bubbles and tart cherry acidity and lingering minerality. Yum!! — 2 years ago
