Starting to show some spice with a little age, but still young and a bit tannic. Drinks well — 4 years ago

A new tradition is blossoming... opening Tondonia on big snow storms - cold smoked trip tip is a great combo too. Dried pruned and desiccated raspberry. Soy and umami. Tobacco and smoked cedar. Layered and evolved nose - masculine but elegant. Brilliant acidity lifts currant, sap, and tart red berry fruit. There is this unique stewed fruit which turns tart. Tannins are present but integrated. Drinks well now, but no hurry. Classic wine from a classic producer. — 5 years ago

Double decant and pour(lots of sediment). A splendid medium ruby red color. On the nose: a little stewed red fruit, herbaceous, worn leather, mint, sweet smokey oak, loamy soil. Taste: smooth, elegant, savory wine with a touch of dried red fruit, dried herbs, cocoa, damp earth, minerals, and a spiced iron/meaty medium finish. YUM! Mature and on the long downside, but still drinks nicely at 28 years. — 10 months ago

A powerful and decadent Clos Des Goisses drinks more like a still wine and it really stains the pallet . Serious juice ! — 5 years ago

serious graphite, hints of leather and pot pourri, this wine for 25 years old is incredibly virbrant and firm, get the feeling it could go another 20 years easily. Drinks like a recent vintage, thanks Bill! — 6 years ago

Tried 3 years ago, and it was a tannic bottle of disappointment, it's changed for the better.

2 hour decant(some chunky/fine sediment). A splendid dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: dark fruit, cocoa, pencil shavings, floral, cigar box, menthol. Taste: soft, elegant wine with some black/red fruit, currants, crushed stone, and an earthy black tea lean medium finish. Not the depth and power of a great year, drinks well now...not sure how much more this will improve. — 2 years ago
