scrambled my brain--really bright & tart-opens into some extremely SOFT&MELLOW fruit & floral moments--but not to worry--never loses the funk--definitely dirty 🍄 — 8 years ago
Nice acidity. Honey and some vanilla on the nose. Took it for an Alsatian Riesling in a blind tasting (potentially for its age) - had a hint of petrol on the back end of the palate and loads of fresh fruit - generally white fruits (white peach, etc). Definitely a revisit! — 8 years ago
Very nice - nicely fruity on the nose, medium to full bodied, just a hint of sweetness, excellent acid and a nice long finish. Had at Auberge d'Ill. — 9 years ago

Yeasty aroma; very much like a brioche or good challah. Fine bubbles, yeast, sweet grape must, and a barely perceptible Flint finish. Excellent! — 8 years ago
A rich Chablis that balances its aromatic and textural opulence with focused acid. Not a laser beam but a bright spotlight that illuminates. — 8 years ago

Still vibrant, and ready to drink. An elegant red decanted 5-6 hours. Notes of clove and currant with a medium to long finish. Nice food wine. — 9 years ago

This wine is made by the great Michel Roland and is a blend of 81% merlot 19% Cabernet Sauvignon from weinbau vineyard candy mountain Dionysus and Conner lee vineyard all are warm sites and the Cabernet is from tapteil on red mountain. A very big and seductive bouquet of dark plum and crem de cassis like fruit very rich and ripe with toasty oak spice dried flowers and dark coco very complex and long on the finish. Big and chewy very rich and layered with silky smooth velvety texture with layers of dark chocolate and a very long finish. Finish 50+ wonderful balance and length with a firm hand of acidity — 11 years ago

Full-bodied, thick and heavy with a lot of roundness and warmth. Aromas of ripe black and red fruits, a little spicy as well. Elaborated by Michel Roland. Spends 28 months in oak barrels. Superb. — 8 years ago

Bone dry. Wonderful nose. Flavors of peach and gooseberries. — 8 years ago
For the price point this is terrific traditional Burgundy. And it only gets better as it opens up. There is some nice mellow oak notes that start coming out. Excellent acid with a lovely blend of minerality and fruit. Not as chalky minerally as say Chablis. A bit fuller body that stands up to bigger dishes — 9 years ago
