Beautiful wine. So much texture. Honey, cream, apricots, quince, honeysuckle, hint of lemongrass, underripe nectarine. Has good balance. One of my favorites from altaber. — 4 days ago

Tons of barnyard, fresh and bright. Cranberry, cherry, lime, raspberry very acidic. Rustic. I like it but it is a little rough. Improved over 2 days under Argon. So gave it a slight upgrade. — 2 months ago

Gamay from mâconnais, with aging marked on notes of vanilla, cocoa, leather. Compared to 2016, the luxuriance of the fruit is a little more marked and gives change to the aging notes without being hidden. A well-made duel wine on a classic style.

Gamay mâconnais, à l’élevage marqué sur des notes vanilles, cacao, cuir. Par rapport à 2016 la luxuriance du fruit est un peu plus marquée et donne le change aux notes d’élevage sans être cachée. Un vin duel bien fait au style classique. — 2 years ago

2005 vintage. Decanted and tasted immediately and through 3 hours. Great fill/appropriate aging cork. Medium sed. Noticeably dark color. Any trace of the usual Cos baby fat for the first decade+ after release long gone geek. Interesting. This was a lean, mean, street-fighting machine with "minerality" to spare. Intense. Compact. Unsure if it will continue to menace in the next decade of life or retreat into a reclusive, "turtling" period. Best guess? Street-fighter par excellence. Regardless of taking the high or low road, it's not devolving into a drink 'em if you got 'em any time soon scenario. Thanksgiving 11.23.23. — 5 months ago
