2009. Took awhile to open up. Delicate nose. A little barnyard, loads of gravelly minerals, sappy slightly sour cherry ooze. Bone dry, lean, and extraordinarily minerally. Like it sucked the juice right out of the rocks. Needs food, and showed really well with grilled steaks and grilled veggies.

Jul 19th, 20152011 on 22 Jan 2018. Much better than 2011. Bright, near effervescent; slight acid in finish. Opens (decanted and warmed) to barnyard funk. Near orange meniscus. From Schneider’s.

Jan 13th, 20182011 from Schneider’s on 6 Jan 2018. Corked, after four years at 55 degrees. $29.99 / bottle. In ca. 2014, had been terrific.

Jan 7th, 2018Accidental purchase from the white Burgundy section at Schneider's. Supple. Maple syrup nose, drinking older than 2012. Oak coming on strong on the palate. Warm fall spices.

Mar 15th, 2015Wonderful, complex nose but the taste demands food, I believe. It's very acidic with not enough body to weight it.
