This is still very young. Lots of lush, ruby fruits of; blackberries, black plum, black raspberries. Tons of barrel notes; wood shavings, charcoal, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon stick, strong, dark spices, caramel, mocha. Meaty, tarry, velvety tannins, dusty soil, volcanic ash, some lead pencil, purple flowers- lavender, violets, nice round acidity. Long, well structured, still big tension but balanced finish. Needs another 6 years of evolution for me. But, nice bottle friends opened. $36 on Last Bottle…over delivers that price now and will even more in six years. — 2 years ago

[70% Shiraz, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon] Medium-dark ruby, faint bricking at edge, I mostly get the Cabernet, shows both its age and some heat (14.5% ABV), solid balance, medium-long finish, good Barossa Shiraz-Cab blend! — 10 months ago

Very nice, but fairly typical cold weather Pinot noir. Could easily be Oregon, could be Swiss. Really quite nice. — 3 years ago

Simple, light, but full of charm. Clear purple dress, beautiful shine. Nose typical of the cabernets-francs de Loire. Raspberry, geranium, violet, blackwood, green pepper (but not too much). The mouth is fresh and tense, with a beautiful mineral weft reminiscent of rifle stone, slate or chalk. Served at 15 degrees, it’s a nice treat.

Saumur simple, léger, mais plein de charme. Robe pourpre limpide, bel éclat. Nez typique des cabernets-francs de Loire. Framboise, géranium, violette, bois de ronce, poivron vert (mais pas trop). La bouche est fraîche et tendue, avec une belle trame minérale évoquant la pierre à fusil, ardoise ou craie. Servi à 15 degrés c’est une belle gourmandise. — 5 years ago
