Very good 18’s here. Deep luscious wine with deep blackberry and black cherry fruit. Furry tannins and lovely mineral freshness. Nose is insanely complex and deep with stones, black cherry liquer, black cherry essence, spice and dark florals Really great. Wonderful mouthfeel and a tiny bit of heat that I hope resolves with air.

Nov 2nd, 2023Nose has confectionary up the wazoo. Cherries dropped in a vat of cherry dust. Lovely stoney background and serious lift. Really powdery and refined. Sure it will open more. Palate is lush, sweet and decadent. Loads of tiny berry sweet cherry fruit and likely definition and clarity. Right as to be expected and will improve with air. Very fresh with extremely fine tannins and length. Great acidity. This is a 20+ year wine no doubt.

Apr 10th, 2022Floral, limestone, cherry cola, super floral, wow, high toned, soil tones, so earthy, sick aromas after 45 minutes. Palate is sick. Inner mouth aromas. Insane fruit clarity. Terrific tannins. Super pure fruit. Long finish. So long.

Nov 23rd, 2020Stupid great nose. Huge cherries, Menthol, sappy red cherries, so many, wow, super stoney, super aromatic. Kirsch, lipstick like intensity. Such purity. Just a studly nose. Loam and inner earth elements. Palate is crazy. Huge huge sweetness of fruit. Powerful and concentrated with such sappy fruit and so slippery and pure. This is very impressive. There is a massive structure here that ensures a very very long life. Terrific inner mouth aromas. Awesome hit of creaminess in the mid palate. Very elegant and delineated with crunch and freshness. Long, amazingly detailed fruit and such sap. Finishes distinctly mineral. Terrific wine and had a very long life ahead of it.
