Crazy burgundy kick. More restrained and oak lite than I thought. Pineapple cake sure but more herbal than anything. Finish is clean not obnoxious. Cool.

Mar 27th, 2021I keep finding the Girardin style to be very restrained which I can very much appreciate and all the right character is there but I just feel like there is a magic in going over the top that I just never find here. I did enjoy this quite a bit but I would be hunting for a different producer in Folatieres. What can be done at the site that I have seen is remarkable. Not docking this for being on point though.
