Wet damp earth, both black and red cherry, dried herbs, candied Apple. M+ acid, chalky tannin, m body. Very young. Needs more time to develop.

Another stunner. The nose is exotic with the wood, fruit and spices working in harmony. Suave tannins meld with morello cherries and strawberries. Acid is perfect. The wine is ethereal and rolls on and on.

Apr 7th, 2016Earthy woodsy almost funky goodness. Maybe a bit overripe? Lots of length.

Mar 20th, 2016Gorgeous aromas. Complex, expressive, and well balanced. Red fruit, rhubarb, dried herbs, tea leaves, and slight pepper finish. Decanted for 60 minutes. Very good!

Maybe I don’t like 2003 anywhere in France. The lack of acidity made everything seem muddled.
