Lots of complex aromatics that became even more expressive as the bottle warmed up. Some oxidative notes mixed with bread and flowers. In the mouth this leans to the vinous side. Acid driven which allows it to be consumed through out the meal. Just a hint of bitterness on the finish — a year ago

Fruit, tension, energy, exciting and very drinkable. I should drink more oxidative style wine - you should too. Utterly delicious! — 3 years ago

Stinky af- strong cowpie that mostly blew off by the end of the glass. Good stuff underneath. Silky with more fruit, like a mouthful of black raspberries and red currants. Savory/brothy finish and a whiff of pine and cab franc spice. — 4 years ago

A very good wine and great choice for this dinner, thanks @pascalinelepeltier.⁣
Very balanced and clean. Alive and tight. An exotic nose with slight notes of hydromel, dried apricot and vanilla. In the mouth, a surprising salinity and subtle bitters. — 3 years ago

Special wines for a special occasion! Happy anniversary to my beloved partner in wine!
Initially a bit closed and was thrown off but after about 5mins in the glass the intensity picked up notably. Pears, apples, hint of honey followed by balanced acidity that complement the nose and palate. Kept picking up volume with every glass. — 4 years ago

I’ve got a head cold but this bottle is still rockin. Bottle age has softened the fruit character and emphasized a perfumy floral quality. Bruised red stone fruit, ripe soil, and fresh herbs found out the nose. Fine tannins and juicy acidity are persistent through the long finish. A pretty, elegant bottle that is both interesting and a pleasure to drink. — 6 years ago
