Aromas of cherry, raspberry, and subtle earthy notes lead to a palate marked by vibrant acidity, fine tannins, and a touch of minerality. Medium-bodied.
Driving nicely at year 10 but don’t think it will improve with further cellar time. — a month ago

This is surprisingly good for a bargain-priced St. Emmie. Nose shows clear, ripe plummy Merlot fruit, some clay-inflected earth, some underbrush, and subtle, pleasant vegetal note. Very nice balance and mouthfeel. Not a bruiser, but more on the elegant side. Fruit, tannin, acids all nicely dancing together. I like this a lot! — 4 months ago

Tasted this one blind. First thing i wrote in my notes was ”really tasty”. I thought this was a Sancerre with some oak. Really fresh with depth. Not a combination I usually find in a wine like this. Impressive. — 3 months ago

Power, poise and precision. Black fruit galore, spice, bacon and butcher shop, bonfire, smoke, olives, garrique - an incredible nose that gave me goosebumps. Perfect balance, immense intensity and just spot on. — 5 months ago
