2020 vintage. Just okay for the price. Medium body. No middle palate or finish to speak of. Front-loaded. Perhaps next vintage. I believe this is the inaugural vintage. Tough year to start up the engine.From some little concern in France known as Smith-Haut-Lafitte. 5.9.24. — 8 days ago

2020 vintage. Medium-heavy body. Nicely made but lacking the complexities of comparably priced and styled Napa reds. From what I understand, this is from the old Flora Springs property. 5.9.24. — 8 days ago

Quite deep still clinging to ruby with a wide quite garnet rim. On the nose touches of sous bois , spice , red fruits , cherry , raspberry and strawberry , porcini . On the palate quite rich and rounded with sweet black cherry , fresh strawberry, raspberry , very good acidity and rounded but quite grippy tannins . In a lovely spot now but will go further , for now and over the next 10 years. — 4 months ago

Started soft and a little salty, opened beautifully to become sweeter, more tart and intense. Very nice experience. — 3 months ago

Lighter style for Cathiard. Floral with rose petal, cranberry, potpourri overtones. Good to drink now while I wait for the Vosne. — 5 months ago

Gorgeous wine! Changed so much in the decanter. At first dark with cola like aromas and then becomes so much more elegant, feminine and spice and floral driven. Very Vosne like which is just what I want from NSG 😅 — 8 months ago
