New-mown hay, blackberry brambles on the nose. Intensely fruit forward, but not sweet or cloying. Raspberries and blackberries. Light tannic structure, with mint and back pepper low notes, but it develops a pleasing minerality on its surprisingly long finish. I don’t know anything about this vintage, but it seems like it was grown on volcanic soils. The front reminds me of a Beaujolais Nouveau, but the finish is much more complex. A unique profile combination that I’ve never tasted before. Lovely. — 3 days ago

Peppermint and a hint of tobacco on the nose. Red cherries on the front. Medium tannic structure with pleasing mineral finish. Even though the grapes are from a clay over limestone landscape I’m not picking up the calcaire. Very nice. — 18 days ago

Tropical fruit and fungi on the nose. The nose is off putting, but otherwise a solid white Bordeaux. I gave it fewer points because of the funky nose. — 18 days ago

Shoe leather on the nose. Red fruit on the front. Light tannic structure. Not much body. What body there is fades on the end. Short finish. Except for the slight scent of mouldy shoe leather on the nose, there’s nothing objectionable about this wine, but it’s weak and watery and without much character. Meh. But wait!…

I left the remainder in the bottle, and 24 hours later it had developed quite nicely. The nose had developed into unripe cherries—losing the moldy leather smell. Red fruit developed on the front, and the tannic structure improved. And it developed a longer finish. I upped my rating from an 8.6 to 9.0.

The 2024 vintage wasn’t on the App’s list, but this is a 2024 vintage. Mangoes and peaches on the nose. slightly watery on the front. Lovely astringency with a soft ending. 67% Sauv Blanc & 33% Sémillon. — 18 days ago

Whoa! This is great! And it’s quite a value, too! This is better than some Bordeauxs that cost ten times what this costs. I don’t know how well it will hold up in 10 to 20 more years, but it’s very drinkable now.

Wet, cobblestones and wet leather on the nose. A hint of cassis on the front of the tongue. Medium tannic structure. Flinty high notes on the mid palate and on the finish. No low notes to balance out the high, but otherwise I’m happy with this wine. I’m giving it a 9.5 because it’s my ideal of what a Bordeaux should be. — 11 days ago

Lovely nose! Dark chocolate and intense red fruit on the nose. Middling tannic structure. Weak fruit on the front, but its minerality explodes on the mid palate and finish. I can taste the clay in soil. — 18 days ago

This is the 2022 Block 296 version of this vintage. Truly excellent. Sour cherries and oregano on the nose. Spicy! Sour cherries on the front. Medium to heavy tannic structure. Tangy on the mid palate. Long finish. Not your typical overpowering Napa Cab. — 25 days ago
