Excellent paired with French cheeses ( Fourme d’Ambert, pavé de brebis, fromages de chèvre de Normandie et d’Anjou). Had the 2017 vintage in July 2023. — 4 months ago

Nose: stewed apples and toasted sugar like the crunchy top of a crème brûlée. Palette candied stone fruit and mildly tart apple. Impressive depth of flavor but not intensely aged in its flavors. Some smokiness and toasty flavors but tart fruits as well. Vanilla apple tart a La mode finish. — 4 months ago
Nicely balanced. Brett adds complexity but it’s overall resolved and elegant, though well beyond its peak with a short finish — 6 months ago

Brett and VA, at a good level though. Prune, fig, dried red cherry, hawthorn juice, lavender, rosemary, oregano, basil ash, orange peel, raspberry juice, pomegranate. Slightly mousy. Soft and well integrated tannins. — 2 months ago
