Outrageous wine. So elegant and the nose was to die for.

Mar 13th, 2022Just insane. Raspberry fruit cake, spice, florals, meats, savory, lavender, gamey, blackberry, perfumed, hint of a feral edge, omg, so concentrated and sweet. Terrific ripe tannins. Such purity. Deep. What texture.

May 31st, 2020Wow. Super perfume right away. In the first 10 minutes it’s changed five times. Now it’s really tingly in the nose. There are none of the super black austere fruits I’m accustomed to with the northern Rhône. Really rich and fragrant raspberries and black raspberries and purple florals. It’s like candied but without sugar. There is a feral edge, like great sweet charcuterie. The finish is really long and clean and mineral with good full tannins. Really in a class by itself (For me). Wow.
