Just love this wine. White stone fruits complemented by a salinity and hints of ash. Complex and interesting, but absolutely delicious... — 11 years ago
Ash, pepper, blackberries and raspberries. Medium-light body and good lift. Simple but focused, pure and super pleasing. If there was just a bit more mid palate depth this would be a stunner. As it is, and at $16, it's a tremendous value and beautiful Chinon. — 9 years ago

2010 vintage. At Pearl & Ash on the Lower East Side (amazing wine list) with Kish. Deep ruby hue. Blackberry, leather, earth and savoury spice. Lots of white pepper and pencil shavings. Youthful. On the palate, great piercing acidity, medium plus concentration, medium alcohol, medium plus crunchy tannins. Long savoury finish. Really shouldn't have opened as this is still a baby. Clearly big and bold. Don't open until 2025+. Will drink forever: 2040+. — 9 years ago
