Bought for 9 euros in corner wine store in 12th. Made mistake of drinking a few glasses before letting it open up. Someone else called it musky. I'd agree. But once it sheds musk, after a couple of hours, it shows off its restrained fruit. Could age for a bit. — 9 years ago
Stemmy, for sure, but ask fantastic dark berriy fruit. Elegant long finish. Made slight error of not opening it early enough before dinner but the wine did get better through the evening. Bought for 24 euros at des Mets et des vins in Paris, marche d'aligre. — 9 years ago
Wow. A great Loire red. A top vin bio. Probably the best I've ever tried of the region. At 18 euros, it isn't the cheapest but great fruit and long finish. Must drink again. (Bought at des Mets et des vins) — 9 years ago

My farewell-to-journalism gift from my wife, and oh so grateful I was. Dense wine with nice tannins and that Burgundian earthiness that brings sighs and smiles. Thumbs up indeed. And thank you, Brione. — 9 years ago
