Intensely spicy dark cherry nose with hints of purple flowers and dark chocolate. Dark jammy plum and black fruit flavors with notes of tobacco and dark chocolate. Deep red/purple color. Big tannins and a pleasantly tart and peppery finish. — 4 years ago

Vintage 2015 / Imagine you find a vineyard with almost 50 years old Chenin Blanc and you are able to make wine from it. Frederic Mabileau must have been thrilled. This vineyard in Saumur is 1 hectare. Minerals in smell, a lot of minerals. Also vanilla (16 months en foudre). Hints of tropical fruit, hay, enormous powerful in taste with good acidity. What a joy to taste this! — 5 years ago

40% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 30% Carignan. Bright black fruits on the nose. Dark plums, medium acid and body, lingering tannins and a mouth-coating chalkiness from the minerals. Very food friendly. — 7 years ago

Drank 2/19/18. Paired with roasted chicken.

The nose of sweet stewed plums and red berries is quite expressive. Still present, but mild, well integrated tannins lend structure to cassis and earth flavors. Medium finish. This could go a few more years, but is in a sweet spot now. I dont think it will improve further, so drink now. Fully mature.

4/22/8/4/3 + 50 = 91 pts.

Thanks @JT for a great bottle. — 7 years ago

Low tannin, good acid, ripe fruit (cranberry/cherry/raspberry) in a balanced and restrained way. A hint of mint. Great value. — 7 years ago

Lovely wine. Pale straw color. Nose of sage, seashells, salt and green fruit, maybe (maybe) lemon rind. Acidity hits right away at the top of the tongue and quickly transitions around the outside, then lingers deep into the long finish. On the palate there’s green apple and sage, seashells, sea salt, and a touch of sea foam. Green apple skin lingers. Fuller body. I can really go for oysters right now. — 3 years ago

Made in Bordeaux but played like a Burgundy. Ripe fruit, rich texture, fine barrel integration, holding its pants even at a temperature around 10-12c.. considerable length - over 20 seconds. Price as jumped since last vintage, so did the quality. This wine can bluff a Burgundy amateur in blind tasting that's for sure; it does feel like a wine from Puligny. — 7 years ago
