This is a California bomb! I don’t always want this but this example is superb — 6 years ago
Just tasted this blind in Somm class. I really enjoyed it and was somewhat surprised by that fact. Not as much of a fruit bomb as I would have expected. Selling Cali wines all day has jaded this East Coast kid. — 7 years ago

Not a fruit bomb, but you won’t mistake this for a Rhône either. Had a lot of depth and intensity, but never overpowering. Black cherry and plum fruits are intertwined with herbaceous notes. The tannins are silky tannins, giving way to a powerful, peppery finish. Gets better with each sip. — 7 years ago
Fourth time tasting Lapierre in 2017. I've got a bit of a cold so I'm not enjoying this one as the previous ones. The nose is still a cherry bomb and bears a violet stamp. The palate is still very well balanced with a strong acid backbone, lots of ripe cherry all over the place, some grip, some width. The palate is a cherry song that plays for a very long while. 24 hours later it's still singing. Great! — 7 years ago

Evening at Charlie’s with Brent and Sara. Fruit bomb. Beautiful evening! — 5 years ago
Fruit bomb toned down after an hour (aerate). From there on kirsch and stewed fruit, subtle herbs and firm acidity as a counterweight. A fantastic coudoulet, outpacing many cndp’s. — 7 years ago
Ok. The bomb dot com. So good. Could stay for another ten but so privileged to have with my steak. — 8 years ago
