2018 vintage. Last tasted 07.03.24 (9.0). This definitely turned a corner and peeled out. Excellent mineral and fruit depth with enough acidity to keep things exciting. Medium body. What a turnaround! 01.15.25. — 5 months ago

2017 vintage. Winemaker Jeff Gaffner is sourcing this fruit from the original block of this vineyard and only one of three winemakers doing so. Big, brusque nose. Some candied fruit, some usual suspects (cola nut, rhubarb, caramelized cranberry, dark plum and cherry) oot und aboot. Both finesse and power evident during the experience. I will say this wine is waay underpriced relative to the market and a banging value. 3.18.23. — 2 years ago

Not one of the best Bordeaux that I have drank but quite decent. 20 years old and still holding its own. for the price point back in 2008 it delivered.  — 6 months ago

Dark garnet color with a wide brim and just a touch of bricking, nothing serious at all. The nose is still kicking at this mature age with a ton of earth notes. Mushrooms and wet moss. Old leather and fresh underbrush. Things are a bit more muted on day two but the fruit does come to play a little. Plums and blackberries mainly with just a little nip of cherry.

You always wonder about these birth year wines as you get older and older and older but I instantly had no doubts about this baby and did it ever deliver. Plenty of nice depth and kept its structure well on day two. The palate was lovely with a nice combination of refinement and rusticity. The streak of mild spice that showed was quite welcome and brings it all home. Terrific stuff. A fantastic aged Bordeaux.

Love this. Tons of flavour. Vanilla, brown sugar, toasted oak. Pairs well with food but also great on its own. — 5 years ago

Somewhere between 5-6 years old. The edges have been smoothed out nicely, but might be slightly over the hill. — 6 years ago

Pale gold and brown hue. Aromas of caramel, creme brûlée, pineapple and orange pith.! Tropical fruits, dried apricots, burnt sugar and orange blossoms.

Mmm. . . The family picked this up at a tasting at our new favorite butcher shop. More on the sweet side for a pinot but still flavorful. Hmmm may have to check my Napster for an accompanying Zac Brown hit for ambience. — 6 years ago
