2024 vintage. Last tasted 3.18.26 (9.2). Picked up a case and pretty flirty/forward. Should show well for the next half-decade. 5.31.26.

Atherton Wine Imports 2026 tasting at République, Los Angeles. 2024 vintage. Medium body. Pretty smoking for CdNV juice and great QPR. Going to be hard to say no to this one. 3.18.26.

Very typical Côte de Nuit, with a complex finish. I’m a fan!
