Great wine and admittedly we are drinking it too young. Great body, balanced and has more tannin than I was expecting but add another 5-10 years and this wine would be stellar. Great fruit and a delicate dusty nose with a little wild rose and lavender .

Aug 27th, 2019Punched way above its weight, beautiful core of dark cherry and fine-grained tannins still driving crisp acidity. Nice.

Feb 10th, 2016Really a marathon runner. Needs time, lots of dark red fruit tannin that need to soften up. Very good though...

Dec 26th, 2015Rough around the edges, but definite potential in 5-10 years. Volnay aromatics; Pommard structure.
