Bought in London for me & Kristen but drinking alone in 4S-Tunis. V good esp for what I think was the price point! — 9 months ago
Nose and attack are incredible. Like the most luscious chardonnay with a touch more volume. Guava, perfume of tropical fruits, floral notes. The arc primes one for breadth and concentration the mid palate is missing. But then the finish is zingy and lasts forever. — 2 years ago

Cornas & cassoulet.
Oh god this is good. A middle eastern / North African bizarre of spice: anise, fennel seed, sumac, black pepper, cinnamon, black plum, maybe some cinnamon, sweet tobacco, smoke, thyme, fennel, thyme, black olive, oregano, black plum, cocoa finish.
Silky Burgundian texture. A lovely arc and finish that continues for minutes.
Everything I love about Syrah. Bottle this as a perfume and I’m buying it. — a year ago
Wow, lots to like here! Complex flavor arc. Honeyed mineral aroma, baked apple, citrus peel, saline and herbal on a very long finish. Really layered. Full, dark yellow, bordering on orange wine, dry throughout, and a touch bitter. Probably some skin contact, but not sure. Perfect for coming Fall dishes, so I’ll save my other bottles.
Follow up: it degrades significantly on day 2, even after pumping the air out. — 8 months 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. — 2 years ago

Mineral, limestone, and a bit of apricot and honey after it opened up. Absolutely amazing. A nice celebration bottle! — a month ago
