May 11th, 2021Marvelous. Starts immediately on the nose—full of rich dark fruits and a little thyme. Carries into the palate with the addition of medium-minus oak. Flavors linger a long time with minimal fall off.

May 1st, 2020Beautiful - everything a young Chateau Musar has - bright sweet cherry fruit with a candied note, a bit of VA that adds depth, a light touch of funk that’s barely perceptible - maybe a level below in terms of extraction and depth, but not far behind. Impressed. This would be a case buy if I drank enough to buy a case of anything

May 22nd, 2019Notes of plum, cherry, currant and anise with lively tannins that smooth out paired with cheese. Smokey Grenache but rounder.
