Got an 2008 (current vintage is 2014). The wine was decanted, because of both age and sediment. Beautifully understated aromas of it's sand & granite terroir, red currants, and light sandalwood. Flavors of baking spice, toasted moss, and black currants. The tannins are bigger than a usual Gamay. Good long finish. I'm impressed!
