Waxy with a honey quality to it. Rich, lush mouthfeel. Loads of fragrance and flavor. However Not really my style. Needs food- I could see a big, creamy chicken dish. — 7 years ago

Nose of plums, forest floor with fresh fallen flower petals. Taste is of plums, black tea, Forest, raspberry, mushroom. I really like this. Opened up after an hour of pulling cork and really excellent after 2+. — 8 years ago

WOW ! This is great and will still improve. Animality which reminds me a bit of Leon Barral’s Jadis and Valiniere. This top Cuvee from Domaine Clos Marie is absolutely great but needs decanting and air before serving. This is bloody good ! — 9 years ago

Mossy and peaty nose. Vegetables and Greene peppers. Prunes and mushrooms. Very French. Very good out of the bottle but it didn't evolve the way I wanted it to. — 10 years ago

Oh, Mourvèdre, from an amazing place. fleshy fistfuls of ripe black-red juice and wild herbs, cleanly contained by chalk. Seamless tannin. Impeccable, balanced, substantial. Yes! — 11 years ago

Aroma jumps out of the glass and the 2012 already shows developing notes of mushrooms with strong floral notes, some sweet spice. Strong smooth tannins and sufficient alcohol to age well. Nice spices. Drink in 5 years. — 11 years ago

Juicy, bit of tang, earthy, long. Great juice — 11 years ago

Funk. Funky. Gamay (B. Dooley). More funk and tons of blue fruit and dirt. A very proper and singular St. Laurent. — 11 years ago

2006. Still austere but saline licorice perfect with the Yuk Jae Gang (steaming bowl of shredded flank steak in Korean broth) — 12 years ago

Slightly brown robe. Lovely nose and palate of an aged burgundy— enough fruit to really enjoy as a pre-dinner wine. — 11 years ago

Another delicious #rarecreature from the Forlorn Hope wine folks @Matthew Rorick This reminds me of a Cabernet Franc meets a Pinot Noir, purple floral and stone aromatics, with juicy fresh raspberry, cherry, a touch of savory and spice. #stlaurent — 11 years ago

Complex nose with dark fruit, cocoa, and graphite...palate is lush with plum, spice, and a touch of smoke. Generous tannins lengthen the finish...a classic CdP. — 12 years ago

09s have been hit or miss for me but man, when they're on, they're on. This is a great example of why: open and dominated by sappy red fruit, wide and giving. — 12 years ago

Mineral and airy. Structured and ripe. Touch of oak tannin but so pure. Excellent. — 13 years ago

9.4

Gorgeous out of the gates. Perfect elegant nose. Hard to describe. As it aerates gets more complex. Beeswax? Hay?

The palate is equally perfect. Dense with controlled richness. Like peach sorbet. Just covers the palate with elegant yum. Sorry if that’s a bit colloquial. Nicely mineral. Long finish. Super clean fruit. Not sure if this makes sense but one of the cleanest Rhône whites I’ve ever had. Very restrained for a northern Rhône wine.

Bought from fass selections. — 7 years ago

9.0

Nose of hay, earth, vanilla, cherry, iron. Profound and complex. The palate is long and wide with cherry along a strong acid backbone. Silky touch on the sides. An oaky thing happening in there too. Strong persistence of the vanilla and cherry for an everlasting finish. What a village! — 8 years ago

9.2

Pounded on the porch. This was super today. Hazy...almost the color of white peach juice...bright berry fruit. Gone in 10 minutes — 9 years ago

8.9

Vigorous nose of uber-crunchy cherry/grapey fruit and a dry gravel and granite earthiness. Dry and demanding in the mouth. Very stoney and lean right now but with quiet intensity of fruit. Long finish. This needs 6-12 months at least. — 10 years ago

Michael Schamis

9.4

Beautiful pale salmon pink color with very fine, persistent, fast bubbles. Gentile strawberry and mineral nose. Crisp and dry with creamy bubbles and wonderful, fresh acidity. Soft flavors of red currant and strawberry. Finish finish is long, crisp and elegant. — 11 years ago
