I think this was an unusual bottle- not bad- just not nearly as good as expected — 4 months ago

9.1

To my palate the opposite of new world- as referenced in a previous note-& drinks more like a Pouilly Fume; quite rich, minerally & taut. Some layers too, with white flowers & honey, still quite full on palate w a slightly petrol nose. Insane Qpr at 14$. — 5 months ago

Forgot this wine, no indication of vintage except on the cork! A flashy earthy dark fruited presentation straight out of some wilderness, firm almost woodsy palate and good finish. Not at all what I would have thought of as Gamay. Looked like it didn’t present well several years ago. Age difference? — 7 months ago

9.2

Lots of complex aromatics that became even more expressive as the bottle warmed up. Some oxidative notes mixed with bread and flowers. In the mouth this leans to the vinous side. Acid driven which allows it to be consumed through out the meal. Just a hint of bitterness on the finish — 2 years ago
