Very smooth! — 12 years ago
1959 and still with strong fruit, a powerful, finessed body, and beautiful structure - great acidity to balance the strong body. Smooth with a vibrant kick, but definitely some expected musty earth with this age. Fruit is a bit raisinated but present and persistent. Don't dally once it's open - enjoy! Truly a well made wine. Tasting this was a wonderful reward after sweating through getting the cork out safely! — 10 years ago
Really enjoyed this once some of the forward alcohol got out of the way. A bit tart on the finish, but nice balance of acidity and earthiness and a touch of fruit. Good intro to Burgundy for my family. — 11 years ago
Once again, Orin Swift has created a well balanced full body and amazing! — 12 years ago
Deep red w/ brick edge; nose of plums, cassis. Herbs; lovely attack of soft sweet cassis fruit, some plums, cedar notes in the finish. Not as big as it once was it is still gloriously lovely to drink and taste for a full minute after swallowing. Drink now. — 11 years ago
Once it opened up, I discovered a smooth, complex friend from Spain. — 11 years ago
Favorite wine so far. Very refreshing. Bought it because of the name/ label, haven't found one to top it yet. — 12 years ago

Interesting wine that only seemed to get better with time.... Once it properly opened up after 75 min or so it was unbelievable. — 10 years ago
