Dec 11th, 2015Right where it should be. Elegant, refined with a really long, mineral finish. I need to buy some.

Nov 29th, 2017Decanted and opening up in a lively manner. This has taken a while to come around, but it's fuller, richer and more layered than the 2014. F-ing delicious right now and this should go beautifully with flank steaks tomorrow.

Mar 12th, 2017A study in contrasts. 2014 - Light, elegant and Burgundian with a lighter color and fruit. Softer, but still with that pervasive, limestone minerality.

Mar 12th, 2017This is evolving quite nicely. A quick decant and, while the power and structure are there, the limestone minerality and Chinese five spice start to take precedence. Makes me want ribs!
