Loved this wine! So complex. Brioche, nutty, high acidity. — 6 years ago
Belle surprise que ce vin. Très axée sur la cerise et des épices comme le poivre qui amènent même la famille à croire qu’on pourrait être en Cote-Rotie. Je ne l’étais pas mais je comprends les commentaires... c’est assurément plus facile quand on a vu l’étiquette ! Une bouteille très agréable d’un producteur loin de la spéculation — 8 years ago

Stinky, reductive, needs lots of air & time to breath. Funky cab franc which many won't like. — 11 years ago

Inky black glorious fruit. Super fruity, dry with silky but strong tannins. — 8 years ago
Zingy acidity, 5-spice, black cherry and leather. — 8 years ago
Fresh, slightly green (stems?), primary. Warm fermentation? Quite lean on the palate. A bit more fruit would help. Very clear but a bit lacking in beauty or lushness. — 10 years ago
Intense gold color. Classic Chenin nose with apples, spices (mainly nutmeg) and rock dust. Palate where green apples, nuts and minerality leads to a finish with some tork on it coming from the not overpowering acidity. Nothing to be afraid of in the wine (reference to the word “Méchant” in the name of the wine). Very good (89)
Made of Chenin Blanc, alcohol level of 11,5%

mmmm. started out super funky, dark juicy fruit, milky. as it sat for a minute it warmed up and got more tannic and chewy. say medium tannin, balanced by medium acids and dryness. definitely bolder but not overwhelmingly so. super enjoyable. i love seb david ❤️ — 6 years ago

Loves this wine chilled it so very smooth — 7 years ago
Low yields in Northern Rhône 2013, but the quality of the fruit is prevalent here. Structured and well-integrated fine grained tannins at the five year mark. The nose explodes out of the glass with finesse and doused complexities. Definitive Syrah nuances of black raspberries, black plums, black olives, fresh cut violets, cracked black pepper, Indian spices, grilled and smoked meats, and stone dust. Light weight but packs a continuous release of flavors. Nose and palate changes from fruit to floral to spicy to meaty. As you move to different areas and rooms the wine changes. The more air it gets, the more meat starts hanging out. Complex indeed for a $20 bottle. Great showing. — 8 years ago

Nice wine for $20. Cherry fruit and some healthy tannins, but relatively light. Nice with turkey; would be good with a lot of foods — 3 years ago
