Had the 2014 vintage this time. Black cherries, black berries, wood and spices, pepper, white chocolate, tobacco. Full-bodied with an amazingly round warm palate. Never-ending finish. — 5 years ago

1961- I mean 1961 - the Somm delivered and @David L and I were blown away - cork was in excellent shape - tannins were strict but silky - - nose on par - pine peach licorice- the color was brand new - crazy - I mean all you ever want in every way - it could go another 20 years - I was taken back - extraordinary- a Bordeaux grand cru that is actually grand — 4 years ago

2022 vintage. @Somm David T has a most excellent, in-depth and recent review on this vintage and wine dated April 19, 2025 (9.3). Couldn’t agree more with his assessments. He didn’t tackle the nose because of the wine serving temp then. It had a curious 3-5 year old Condrieu super floral, super stone fruit nose. I expected and wanted more acidity; got a veritable spring garden and lighter body/less acidity. Flavors and scents constantly shifting so impossible to pigeonhole. ADD in a wine glass. First time with this producer’s white wines and sincerely wondering if this is an outlier/region specific feature or how the whites generally show. 08.22.25. — 2 months ago
