I’m a little confused by this wine. It has quite a bit of brett, and I think it has a bit of VA. Iodine, animal fur, earth, little spice. Tough to get many aromas with the competing brett and off notes. Maybe just a bad bottle. — a day ago

Bruised apple, slate, dried flowers, stone, (slightly tannic finish?), nice acid. Dry, crisp wine. Wish I had some cheese or white cream pasta. — 2 months ago

2009. Similar notes to the 2005. Less eucalyptus notes, more dried fruit. Inky color, iron minerality, cassis driven, pretty fruit, tannins still grippy. Tobacco and mint on the finish. Cork disintegrated while opening, but juice intact! 😁 — 19 days ago

Bought for a tasting, forgot to do the notes. Cassis, mint, cigar box, olive tapenade, nice acid. Threw some sediment, so needed to decant. Very nice. — 15 days ago

2021. Kermit knocking it out of the park again, as always. Pretty raspberry/cherry notes, spice, fruit roll up, hint of pepper, crushed rocks, baking spice, earth and great acid. Love the 13.5 ABV. — 2 months ago

Jalapeño/bell pepper, raspberry, chalk, underripe blood orange rind, medium tannins (leaning towards medium plus), dried herbs, slightly smoky, cherry on the finish and nice acid. Previous bottle could meld with chicken, not so much on this one. Will save to have with some meat tomorrow 😁 — 2 months ago
