A very green wine, with white pepper written all over it. 12% of the Savoie is covered in this varietal known as Mondeuse (1 of 23 varietals?). My kind of wine! — 12 years ago

Fantastic bottle of wine that was completely reflective of the house and the vintage, powerful velvet covered magic carpet ride of deep red fruits...concentrated and weighty yet showed a lot of finesse. I'd say it has 15+ years — 10 years ago

9.6

Deep ruby color with thick legs. Muted primary aromas of red currant, black cherry and strawberry jam. More pronounced secondary aromas of black tea, lavender, cocoa powder, wet stone, damp earth, cigar smoke, and a rich ribbon of vanilla. Medium + tannins, high acidity, with additional flavors of mocha and chocolate covered cherries. 15+ second finish, and still obviously very tight and worthy of many more years in the bottle. Amazing with bistecca alla fiorentina! — 11 years ago

Had to raise my rating after the second day. This thing is glorious. Showing crushed french vanilla coffee beans. Jammy, dark chocolate covered black cherries. On the pallet the tannins are soft and supple. Breadth and depth from start to finish. — 12 years ago

2005 - headed more towards modern style Rioja smelling of cherry, vanilla, blackberry, oak, tobacco, and cloves. Flavors are big and bold enclosed in subtle but thorough tannins: chocolate-covered cherries, tobacco, leather, cedar box, and hints of dill. — 10 years ago
