Oct 2nd, 2015Earthy nose with ruby grapefruit wedge. Creamy though, and a touch of tangerine. With subterranean mushroom in loam-land. Pear and apricot in syrup. Medium mouthfeel becomes heavy on the finish and winds up into an olive and lemon oil point. Creamy textures persist.

Jan 16th, 2021This was a second bottle drank at home with John and David T. It followed a segue st estaphe medoc 2007 and it accompanied lamb with cumin roasted veg. It was a huge contrast to the Bordeaux. It was jammy like a Zin. I had finder memories of the wine when we drank it at le coq rico with our fancy roast chicken with gentle clove and star anise seasoning. I think it is a good chicken wine.
