Aug 21st, 2015The label got roughed up a bit, but the wine was actually incredibly fresh and mineral- not overwrought at all!

Jan 4th, 2015Dayum… this is good.
Intense and fresh, quite Burgundian. No signs of oxidation, this is all about luscious tropical fruit, soft spices, warm pastry, vanilla, smoky minerality.
In a great spot now and an impressive showing!

Not as flawed as the 2006 I tried recently, but still not good.
Nice gold color with some rust showing through. Funky nose followed by a wine that is harsh and dominated by butterscotch.
Got via a charity event, so at least it was for a good cause.
