2nd bottle and still so much pleasure. The well-worked Tannat grape brings notes of black plums; a mineral touch reminiscent of carbon or chemical smoke (not unpleasant), completed with a gourmet chocolate side, and notes reminiscent of pine or cedar sap or eucalyptus. The palate is supple and round with a lot of volume. The wine can still age for several years if we judge by the aromatic density. The tertiary woody touches are well melted, this is a good beefy and greedy bottle which will go as well with a chocolate desert as with a duck breast. Sweet and sour cooking will also go very well.

2eme bouteille et toujours autant de plaisir. Le cépage Tannat délivre des notes originales de prunes noires; une touche minérale rappelant le carbone, la fumée chimique (pas désagréable), complété d’un côté chocolaté gourmand, et des notes évoquant la sève de pin ou cèdre ou l’eucalyptus. La bouche est souple et ronde avec beaucoup de volume. Le vin pourra encore vieillir plusieurs années si on en juge par la densité aromatique. Les touches tertiaires boisées sont bien fondues. Un vin costaud et gourmand, qui ira aussi bien sur un désert chocolaté qu’un magret de canard. la cuisine sucrée/salée ou aigre doux ira très bien également. — 5 years ago

Lifted aromatics: tar, tobacco, pine needles, crushed gravel, and violets. Slight black pepper notes. Juicy red cherry and forest berries. Softened tannins balanced with lingering acidity. Singing right now but will cellar a while longer. Drink or hold. — 7 years ago

Took an hour or so to open up, but pretty good once it did. Beautifully clear Ruby red color, medium- viscosity. Nose sees oak, ripe cherries, some mustiness and earthiness. Palette sees cherry cough drops, cola, ripe cherries. A short finish was a little disappointing, but as some that isn't a huge Piedmont fan, I enjoyed this. — 8 years ago

From the #favia brand. Very interesting nose of plum, sage, coffee beans and dirt, but no funk earthiness can sometimes bring. Savory mid with graphite, dark chocolate and a bit of blackberry and spice. Pretty firm tannins in the mostly cab franc/sauv blend. 2015 vintage that will be even better with some time. — 7 years ago

Herrinnering aan clubkampioenschap.... Mooi glas Peter en een echte Berger wijn.
Mooi geouderde Barolo. Beetje kool in neus na openen maar uurtje karaf doet wonderen. Nog steeds wat tandplak maar mooie balans en beschaafd zuur. — 8 years ago
