A very elegant wine - attenuated nose of plum/cherry. Palate is more of the same but rather mineral and filtered quite elegantly through a tannic structure buttressed by just enough acidity. The structure really shines. Long finish & miles to go. A lovely wine from @Lyle Fass 😍 — 9 days ago
This is going places. Quite elegant even if primary and youthful at nearly four years of age. Muted nose; palate is blackberry & stone, highly mineral, terrific balance & acidity - an elegant arc. Pull one if you must but take my word—this will pay dividends. — 12 days ago

Gorgeous opulent gold. Perfumed honey nose. Palate does a 180 - lees-y & very dry; bitter almond finish with a big note of citrus pith. — 7 days ago
À point. Nice depth & complexity - mineral, seashell, bright acidity to temper the roundness. Long finish. Very poised & classic. — 10 days ago

Heat & tannin blow off/soften after three hours to reveal a lovely core of structured sweet fruit with garrigue. Nice work. — 8 days ago
Aperitif with cheese. Terrific acid, orange zest, hazelnut, creamy. Very nice. — 12 days ago

Supremely elegant. Drinking very nicely with a decant. Cozy mustiness which blows off, mint, fruit, & spices on the nose. Palate is all sweet cherry fruit with a lacework tannic undergirding that softens as it opens. Totally see the volnay comparison @Lyle Fass notes below. Lovely stuff. 😍 — a day ago
