2009: Quite a sense nose, ripe and darker fruit but lacking terroir or grace. Sweet and spicy. Medoum@bodied, spicy, sweeter fruit, juicy, ripe, no tannin, low acid, drink now.

Showing more backward than the other wines this night from Burgundy; darker colored and fruit ed with more of the wild side with smoke, blackberry and currants, licorice and savory spice. Would love to see this in a few years time, great potential.

One of my new favorite producers. Took some time to open and then, glorious. Tart, sappy red fruit mixed with peppery spices and just a touch of oak. So pure, minerally, I wish I had a case.
