9.1

From an alpine valley in Italy close to France. Very light and elegant reminds me of a Chambolle-musigny. Raspberries, hint orange juice, good tannic structure. Strikes me as a drink now wine. I would keep this may be 3-4 years at most. Might be worth to cellar a little bit and see what happens. From Max Kogod. — 2 months ago

2015 disgorged in 2019. Just ok. I was hoping for more. The fruit was subdued. — 4 months ago

In a deeper and darker register then I was expecting from this producer but I don’t think over tried the fumin before. Earthy, saline, dark berries, cassis, licorice, low to medium acid — 7 months ago

9.2

Dark, inky hue. Aromas of earthy, licorice, pepper, plum, pomegranate, rubber, tar, and tomato leaf. Full-bodied, with full tannins and plus acidity. Smooth, rounded finish. — a year ago

2020 vintage. Decent value for Cornas. Big body. Lots of smoke and fruit with structure but not as much as Cornas usually invoices for. Hyperactive and needs to relax somewhat. Maybe in 3-5 years? Has 9.3 potential in there somewhere. 3.6.24. — 2 months ago

I liked this better than the Les Baudieres we had last week. Kind of like a watermelon agua Fresca. — 4 months ago

Earth, barnyard, crunchy berries, depth and breadth envelops the palate. Layers upon layers. Plenty left to give. Fantastic offering from the Etzel’s. — 6 months ago

Dark pungent wine. Taste better than smell. 15%. Sat for over an hour and didn’t open up. Drinkable but not what I expected for a a chateauneuf du pape — 3 years ago

Love this wine. Not really for champagne traditionalists, this is a great garagiste champagne. Wonderful fresh fruit, rich but crisp, not cloying or sweet, this is substantial enough for rich foods yet refreshing enough to drink on its own. — 3 months ago

9.2

So good. Clean, brioche, green apple, crushed rocks and great acid. Was lucky enough to visit the winery last year. Really great producer. — 4 months ago

A bit tart and slightly bitter. Good dark fruit perhaps in a few years it will smooth out. — 9 months ago

Terra orca is right! The earth is coming at me and I’m seeing red. But not the red of fury, the red of passion, the red of pleasure, and the red of desire. One sip of this and desire for the pleasure of passion from this wine endures. The palate parties with minerals. — 3 years ago
