Drank 2/19/18. Paired with roasted chicken.
The nose of sweet stewed plums and red berries is quite expressive. Still present, but mild, well integrated tannins lend structure to cassis and earth flavors. Medium finish. This could go a few more years, but is in a sweet spot now. I dont think it will improve further, so drink now. Fully mature.

Took me two years to get some for the shop. Bigger and darker then your typical Fleurie. Was drinking well but a little too young. This will get better wit age and I look forward to revisiting. — 5 years ago
