Fruit forward but terrific in a pinch when New World PN is just not your thing.

Jul 18th, 2021Fairly insipid right now. Lean, good acid, shy on the nose and very tight and reticent with fruit.

Jul 13th, 2018This kicks ass for the money. Very well made, reminds me of MSD in character. Dark and savory with plenty of charm. Has all the rustic and earthy notes that I crave from Burgundy. Redux at first but air and a bottle shake do the trick. From Old VV vines in Vosne and Haute Cote du Nuits.

Nov 3rd, 2017Great quality for the price. Elegant - strongly floral and mineral, with brambly red fruit.

Jun 12th, 2019Improved with quantity
Jan 5th, 2019Fantastic example of winemaking the right way. Of a natural bent but none of the bullshit that goes along with it. Clean and beautiful ripe fruit- pomegranate, red cherry, raspberry, violet. Also some crushed rock and damp dirt. High acid into a soft bed of tannins this got it going on. Also a steal, better than some village Msd at twice the price
