day one cru beaujolais nose with underbrush red berry and chicory notes in a dark candy apple red cloak, just lovely and unstoppable….like you can’t stop drinking it…..day two softer darker cloudier more nuanced stewed fruit and vegetal notes, earthier - traded leaf for soil, and a very appealing candied orange rind scented bitter melon finish. both days great with delicate and hearty foodthings, versatile and expansive….if you can find this, lay it down. — 4 years ago

Oak. Leather. Smoke (could also be the charcoal bbq, verdict is still out on where the smoke is coming from).
Big and complex.

Fairly dry and somewhat fruity. Notes of cherry on the long finish. Full bodied, which I loved. Low acidity and alcohol. Overall an enjoyable, balanced red. — 6 years ago
