Potent yellow colour. Rich, almost Chardonnay like despite being a mix of roussanne-Grenache blanc-Viognier, and string body. I really like this one. 4/2-2023 (home) — a year ago
30 min woke up. It has lots of deep aroma. Black plum, blue and black, cherry and berry. Deep. One of the best among Liu dumon. 2018 @1710, xuaduo - Lazo, 220318-220323 — 2 years ago
A bit bitter on its own, balances itself out when paired with a fatty meat (in this case, a Basque region raised pork loin). — 6 months ago
Wine traditions. Love this producer so much. — 2 years ago
Dark red fruits, dark chocolates and some meaty aromas. This is a great wine that will get better with age. We’re going to enjoy this with Christmas leftovers! — 6 months ago
2022/5/31-6/1 with ayu karaage, hachiku several ways, niku-dofu, etc. This is my favorite of the lower-priced Léa reds - there’s really nice acidity and flesh, and enough age to be fully open with hints of complexity but still with vibrant fruit. Really good on day 2 as well. — 2 years ago

Already developed into drinking window. Sometimes you have these wines that do not tip the high rating scales, not overly complex, layered or standout elements. No, this is just really well balanced and giving a lot of pleasure and easy drinking.
Funny fact: This cuvee name means badger in Occitan, a wink at the animal who eats Jean-Francois' grapes.. 🦡 — a month ago
