Good blizzard wine. Rich and deep. Not a huge amount of finesse, but fine for the vintage.

Jan 23rd, 2016Cheeky little wine. Nice aromatics, firmly structure while giving up some dark berry fruit. Enjoyable.

Nov 25th, 2014Not quite as good as my last bottle in 2019. Lots of red cherry, strawberry and pomegranate fruit accented with deft touch of oak and just a hint of sous bois. A touch compact at opening but develops nicely wine air. Bright red fruit tones on the palate with brown spice, baked stones and a bit of dried earth. Quite fresh with good extract that plays nicely with the tannins. Finish of red fruit and Corton minerality. This bottle is missing a level of focus and depth that would really elevate the palate.
Drinking well now with potential for more developed. Certain to be enjoyable over the next 5 to 7 years.

Feb 2nd, 2022Boulder Burgfest Paulee. From double magnum. Tasty, but hard to really appreciate this after so many older wines.
