Tasted over 3 days-1: unpleasant sap-green notes, like a poor cab franc; 2: evolved to riper bright red fruits, taut & great grip; 3: we,re home, fruit meets acid, closer to a good chinon, but still w a distinctive, high tone. 2010.

Really nice balance of fruit, depth, acid and a touch of smokiness with this fumin (rare grape varietal). Picked it up for about $22 and was very surprised by its deliciousness.

Very dark, as always, with a sharp plum overtone., and an overall smokiness. It opened quickly and was a wonderful complement to an Italian meal that featured agnolotti dal plin.
