Didn’t know much about Loire valley red wines until this random bottle popped up. Very nice - red fruit and grippy tannins. Some earth tones. — 21 hours ago

Almost effervescent with acidity, bright, with tart cherries, the funk and slight brine of olives, and a pleasant mid-mouth weight. — 2 months ago

This is a legendary wine and wow is this elite. Nose is the essence of NSG aka “The Bordeaux of Burgundy.” Stunning cherry fruit. So vivid. A creamy aspect also to the nose but on top of wet earth and stones. Tiny berry fruit intensity and mashed violets. Super aromatic. Palate is so well knit and silky with a meaty element as well and distinct cherry fruity. Mid season but also some black cherries as well. This has classic Ledy structure but is so approachable for this bottling. That’s 17! Will be back as it opens. But out of this world right now. Amazing tiny berry intense fruit! Also a pastille effect on the finish. — 3 years ago

This is showing very well. Very 15, sunshine, gorgeous earthy ledy funk. Truffle developing. Just gorgeous nose. Mint. The mint is insane. Just ridiculous. Palate is full and rich, with opulent fruit and sweet, elegant tannins that pump fruit on the long finish. Very elegant and detailed. A tiny bit of heat but let’s see what air does. Heat gone on day 2. Mouth filling and gorgeous. So supple and classy. — a month ago

Vintage 2020 | if all generic Bordeaux was at this level, there was no problem wathsoever. Strict when popped and poured. But with a day (or two) for what is left in the bottle it’s so comforting and velvety. Paired with old sheep’s cheese. — 6 months ago

Very nice flavours of cherry, plum, raspberry, and a touch of leather/earthy (in a good way!) Well balanced. Nice bottle too! — 3 years ago

50-year old vines close to Fleurie and Chiroubles (more pink granite soil). Dark garnet color, black tea and strawberry. Fresh with light tannins, but not much structure or acidity. Great for immediate drinking. — 2 months ago

Second take on this one because I really enjoyed it the first time and we even went back to buy a couple of bottles to bring back home. Previous notes stand and we had it with food this time around and it works super well with white meat cooked on the grill and light summer veggie and salad dishes. Last evening in the Polish mountains. We will come back. — 9 months ago
