Crazy tannins! Very intense wine. I think I will love it in ten years

Ripe-ish, a little stemmy, a little bloody. Polished. Showing a little development. Lovely texture.

Earth on the nose. Delicious representation of a French burgundy.

3rd time around on this and I'm calling decant and drink it within a 12 hour period or let it sit for a while longer. Just not showing what I know is there. So much bright freshness and black and blue berries.

Does not fail to deliver. With a little time this really sings. Massively complex and unique nose with a resounding lengthy finish as my tongue attempts to soak it up. Best value bottle in this city ☝🏼️

Dark and deep earthy intensity on the nose. Mad long finish. Resonating all kinds of noble candy delight. The wine is excellent.

Very interesting — bolder than usual, strong apple tart and a pinch of spice. Darker, richer ruby colour. If blind, I'd say this is some Russian River Pinot, very young and open, but with gracious Burgundy aftertaste and overall lightness and elegance. Definitely worth trying.
