Roundness, velvety, aging tannins and alcohol are elegantly melted, carried by a (still) medium + acidity that leads well the tasting from the attack to the finish without failing. The letters of nobility of Burgundy at a justified price. Can be enjoyed endlessly and without headaches. Garnet-colored silk.
De la rondeur, du velouté, tanins d’élevage et alcool sont mêlées avec élégance, porté par une acidité (encore) moyen + qui conduit bien la dégustation de l’attaque à la finale sans faillir. Les lettres de noblesse de la Bourgogne à prix justifié. Se déguste sans fin et sans maux de tête. De la soie couleur grenat. — 2 years ago
Vintage 2010 | This wine ticks all the boxes. Purple red with a brown rim, like Italian rooftiles. Cedar and tobacco in smell but surprisingly much red fruit for a wine of this age. Velvety structure. Fine example of right bank Noblesse. | paired with skirt steak — 10 months ago

Powerful. Typical animal notes, bacon, smoke. Concentration, and spicy gourmet notes. Notes of evolution bring distinction and nobility. Nice price/pleasure ratio.
Puissant. Notes typiques animales, lardées, fumée. De la concentration, et des notes épicées gourmandes. Des notes d’évolutions apportent de la distinction et de la noblesse. Beau rapport prix/plaisir. — 3 years ago
Rappahannock 2015 with Rebecca
Really good blend. Smooth. Earthy. Subtle tannins. Medium body.
Would buy again! — a year ago
A solid Beaujolais-Village, bearing the stigma of the beautiful Beaujolais wines. Tiled ruby color, of a certain concentration. Superb open nose, between candied red fruits (cherry, strawberry), dried floral bouquet (Pink, peony, iris), white pepper, and notes of aerial evolution tending towards truffle, medley, nail polish. Close to a Burgundy in more airy and more floral. Fine and final body on vivacity. Beautiful nobility, superb for its price. Drink a little refreshed.
Un Beaujolais-Village solide, portant les stigmates des beaux crus du Beaujolais.
Robe rubis tuilée, d’une concentration certaine. Superbe nez ouvert, entre fruits rouges confiturés (cerise, fraise), bouquet floral séché (Rose, pivoine, iris), poivre blanc, et notes d’évolution aérienne tendant vers la truffe, pot-pourri, vernis à ongle. Proche d’un Bourgogne en plus aérien et plus floral. Corps fin et finale sur la vivacité. Belle noblesse, superbe pour son prix. À boire un peu rafraîchi. — 2 years ago

55% Cab Franc, 45% Cab Sauvignon. Full-bodied, dark, a little earthy with nice fruit notes showing through. Not as bright as a Loire Valley Cab Franc, yet still tasty and interesting. With gnocchi and Brussels sprouts on a Wednesday. — 5 months ago
