May 21st, 2023Deep and soulful. Dark plum, black pepper, blood, graphite. Lovely tart sharpness from the viognier. Quite lean and defined. Very good.

Jul 9th, 2022Light garnet-ruby. Rusty, musty nose. Olive brine, dried blueberry. Long, juicy, bloody palate, with reverberating acidity and prickly tannins. Hints of roasted nuts and cocoa. So alive on the palate. A real treat.

Mar 26th, 2019From a Paris bistro list. Dark ruby and opaque in the glass. Attention grabbing nose. Notes of black cherry, iron and graphite, earth and some menthol. Silky and rich in the mouth. Palate staining. Outperformed my expectations.

A plusher and richer #côterôtie than I have tasted up until now. Could be the 2012 vintage was warmer than others?
