Still fresh and full of life; a real treat — 8 years ago
Very nice and smooth. Definite tannins, but not too heavy. Those ease over time and the wine remains extremely drinkable even 24 hours later. Perhaps longer, but it had all gone by then. — 8 years ago
Sauturnes front giving way to heat, spice, and that musty peaty terroir. Pulls no punches, but velvet gloves every one. — 8 years ago
Excellent red blend. Left bank Bordeaux-esque. Earth on the nose, strong tannins, fruit comes later on tongue. Overall excellent recommendation by Corkbuzz Charlotte. — 9 years ago
(La Cave de Famille Herrmann, JA's childhood friend). Goldfish straw. Deep, gouttey, copper filing nose. Intensely mineral and richly earthy. Not at all tropical. Impressive nose. Extremely serious on palate, masculine, even austere. Not very 2006, in a good way. Mineral, densely textured. Long but needs many years to really blossom. Very fine. — 10 years ago

Summer cocktail disguised as a wine. This is actually made with Riesling and I was surprised how much I enjoyed this. Very fruit but not too sweet to consider it a dessert wine.
The setting was idyllic: sitting on the winery’s porch with a summer breeze with the mountains in the distance. I brought a bottle back for the office to try so it’ll be interesting to see if this still holds up without the countryside surroundings. — 7 years ago
Have not had this in about 3 years. Definitely needed to check in. Stunning nose. Sweet spices, bursting red cherry fruit, wet earth, sweet well integrated oak. Stunning aromas. Wow this has turned around. Palate is elegant and complex with tremendous depth. Sweet sappy fruit and a tiny bit of hard yet sweet tannin that needs maybe 1 hour to unfurl. Terrific intensity and freshness. Light yet packed and very complex. This has aged into something beautiful. — 8 years ago
