I bought this for 40 dollars in Paris in 2004. It has survived 2 cross country moves since then. I was worried it would be dead or over the hill. The cork was crumbly. But the wine was incredibly wonderful. I have been meaning to drink this for 10 years but kept delaying. Still lots of primary fruits along with the forest and other 2ndary flavors. This is why Burgundy can be so entoxicating to people. It so often disappoints, but not this time. Too bad wines like this are now so far beyond my means or desire to pay. — 6 months ago

Typically a really big wine, classic Napa cab style, but this bottle was a little flat. Probably not the best storage conditions. — 7 months ago

Well an excellent CA style Merlot tempered and refined by age! The winemaker’s handiwork still detectable? — 10 months ago

Balanced, round, rich and creamy with a nice underlying cut of minerality. This is broad and inviting. More complexity from process than site. Tasty, fun, pleasant. — 7 months ago

Still got it! Deep golden color. Apricot, bergamot, soft anise. Light textured on the palate. Only 8% ABV, easy to drink. Not too sweet. Amazingly approachable. — 8 months ago

We had the 2012 and it was fabulous. All the purity and grace of grand cru Chardonnay, with elegant depth from the honey and nut overtones that age brings. This was a wonderful experience. (Pro tip: Please don’t drink it too cold: you’ll miss so many of the flavors!) — 9 months ago

Excellent wine with opulent black fruit - blackberry, cassis, black cherry, eucalyptus, violet, vanilla, cedar and clove. Tertiary notes are beginning to emerge - forest floor, leather, tobacco and dried cassis. Rich texture but well balanced despite 15.5% abv. Long finish, outstanding quality. — 10 months ago
