Earthy and spicy 15 yr old burgundy doesn’t disappoint. A curry/cocoa nose. Just enough acidity. Red/black fruit still talking. Super long finish. Outta the park.

Bright, tight, and champing at the bit. Racy acid and cool fruit sitting nimbly on a perch of earth and spice. Finish that won't quit. Drank it too soon but still a great treat. Gift from a colleague at my wife's job. I've never met her but I like her. A lot.

2018 vintage. Tasted blind. Light-medium body. Tasted a little hot (higher alcohol…like upper 14’s-low 15’s. A near total lack of anything demonstrative. Guessed an Italian Grenache. There was nothing, other than color, that even remotely tied this effort to Burgundy. Bottle definitely in a dumb/mute place. 1.23.24.

Classic, berries, fairly light but with nice earthy tones and slightly gut spiciness already. I’m buying some more for years to come.
