Killer nose at 33 years young from an OK vintage. Chestnuts galore. tar, roses, melting road tar and crazy florals. Woodshop. Old Library books. Macerated cherries. Smells like elite Barolo. Just gorgeous. As it airs the minerals come through and the nose gets more and more expansive. I could smell this all day. Palate is tasting so young. Tannic and structured but with glorious cherry fruit and a mix of dried and fresh cherries. Very delicate yet big. This is so beautiful. Wow what sweet sweet cherry fruit and glorious freshness and acidity. This is terrific. Needs air as these all do. Nose now has burnt ember from a fireplace. Now after aid the complexity and finesse come in spades. It’s so elegant. The cherry fruit gets more defined. Now on Day 2 it has gotten better and better. These wines are timeless and ageless. Nose is a nebbiolo symphony with tar, dried roses, cigar box, dried cherries and huge minerality. So enveloping. Unreal chestnut. Palate is juicy and so clear. Amazing velvety tannins and so silky. Unreal wine. More finesse and better fruit clarity today. — a year ago
Been a bit over 4 years since I have had the. Nose is classic with tar, tobacco, ripe mid season cherries, really provocative spice notes, and some chestnut. Palate is ripe and minty with ripe but substantial tannins and not that much finesse which I hope will develop with air. Juicy and so clean but lacking some excitement. — 5 months ago

Fruity. Crisp. Apples. Berries. A little citrusy light bubble. Great for a hot day. — 2 years ago
Such a musk! You could bottle this as a cologne and I’d buy it. Chestnut, fennel pollen, golden apple, dried pear, beeswax, white pepper, very subtle sherry-like notes. Amazing pairing with pork pate and with confit chicken wings. Becomes more honeyed with time in the glass/decanter. Old Chenin 😁 — 3 years ago
