I adore the wild character of this wine. Unreal spice on the nose, soppy cherries, soupy but so clean, mineral, tree bark, some sous bois. Palate is ripe, juicy and fresh. Terrific acids and so so pure. Clean. Juicy and slippery. Loads of red cherry and black cherry fruit. Elegant tannins. Long finish. Charmingly rustic. Awesome freshness and the nose is super expressive.

Beast of a St. Aubin. Great fruit with lots of acid and burly tannins. Based on this bottle, needs a few more years.

Sick sick nose. Spice, big vivid cherry stank. Minerals. Very 2015 pungent. Palate has sweet sweet fruit but terrific acidity. Very dense and fresh. Terrific tension. What great acids and explosiveness. Pure and rustic. Awesome.

Nothing special, ok wine. Too much alcohol

Just so fresh and perfect. Not trying to be anything except what it is.

A wild one. Decanted for three hours prior to drinking. Strides the line between beauty and gnarly. I like that balance here, somehow it works
