Jun 21st, 2017Focused and precise, with the typical high toned floral quality of this estate. Lots of tension and grip, hold.

May 10th, 2017Enjoyed at 1313 in Napa in (almost) complete darkness due to a power outage....fun and weird experience.
The wine = solid as always.

If you find yourself dining alone at herbsaint in NOLA, this bottle makes for pretty good company. Wish you were here g. And @Ryan Mullins know you'd dig this. All the right stuff - peony flower, raspberry and potting soil. Everything I used to hate about Gamay that I now love thanks to @Sebastien Telford-Rake

Nov 2nd, 2016This is a terrific Gamay...but only if you have the patience to give it a decant for an hour or so. What started out as just OK evolved into something quite delicious. Not too sure it will last until the Duck Confit w/White Bean Stew is plated. 😎
