Am excellent dark berry start with a tinge of date. The middle is dark chocolate, and the wine finishes with a mineral black pepper spice.

Pure red fruit, almost delicate but with nice concentration, it could use more complexity but is quite pleasant.

Jun 10th, 2018Wow! In honor of the century mark for the brunier family. Fresh mixed berries, lavender, it actually reminds me of fresh pressed grapes at a winery just on the nose. Palate is a more ripe and jammy version of La Crau, although I haven’t had the ‘15. Strawberries and raspberries for days, but also a game quality with floral essence. This seems like a great value for 40 bones.

Dark fruit, some spice and earthiness on the nose. Carries over to the palate with other layers of complexity. Bold, but with layers of subtlety and nuance. Long lingering finish. Delicious!
