A little green with my miss-food-pairing but still lovely.

High tannins, coffee and fruity flavors. “Squishy” texture.

Definitely felt like the biggest wine of the bunch. Oak & spice on the nose with some darker fruit. Great power, but more than enough acidity to reign it in. Wonderfully structured, and it doesn’t take much to convince me this has a long life based on the other bottles we had. Great stuff.

The Bretons -- and, really, Bourgueil -- are just so damn good.

Sour dark fruit, raspberry, crushed violet, wet chalk, musty cellar, the crunch of rocks underfoot on a crisp spring day. Youth incarnated. Pure. Naive.
