Voluminous and layered, this wine pretty much stayed unchanged since I last had it about 2 years ago. The sweet and dense fruit core is especially impressive.
Every bottling coming out of this winery is well crafted. Highly recommended. — 7 years ago

Cherry on the nose.Spicy, woodsy, forest floor on the palate. Dark fruit like their other wines but not driving the bus. Lower tannins, medium acidity. Very nice. — 7 months ago

From magnum. Switching in between the 2016 cab and this Rhone blend, I actually like this better. Though not overly complex, the delicious red and blue fruits, gentle acidity, and silky tannins were seamless. Throwing in the sense of earth, here we have a subtle and elegant bottle. — 7 years ago

On écluse les erreurs du passé...pas si mal mais 2 coches sous le Combes aux Moines 2009 de Faiveley bu à Shawinigan! Le nez est moins expressif & sexy ainsi qu’une bouche plus mince. — 8 years ago

The 15’ bottling sees Petit Verdot leading this Bordeaux blend at 32%, with 26% CS, 26% Merlot, 13% CF, and 3% Malbec.
Complex and deep nose of blackberry, cassis, fig, dry pine cone, dark soy source, butterscotch, thyme, black pepper, with hint of violet. The palate, while delicious and smooth, lacks the depth I expected. Finely grained tannins lead to a long peppery finish.

The nose started off with subtle aromas of blueberries and scent of perfume, then gaining complexity with black currants, dates, herbs, spices, vanilla, and hint of smoke. Tastes echoed the nose but have a ripe and syrupy feel. Full body. Warm and velvety with polished tannins bringing home the long spicy finish.
This is the 5th different bottle I’ve had from this boutique winery. They can’t do no wrong. 274 cases made. — 7 years ago
