Dusty cellar tannin nose, even after a few hours..
What I thought would be a fruit forward wine, turns out to have some structure to it, layers of prune, black olive, dark flowers, like violets, and lavender. Ends in a long finish of absorbic acidity, light peppery tannin.
A chilly night wine, for sure. — 4 years ago

Valuuuuuuuue! Lots of complexity hidden in pure friendly fruit. Madame that made this is making a strong case for herself. — 6 years ago
Was worried by initial natty aromas but they blew off to reveal a beautiful Syrah. Dark berries, granite, fine tannins. Not overly polished. Delicious with braised short rib and ricotta gnudi. — 10 months ago
Spring 2021. 10 years is a great age for the denser Maconnais wines - enough time to develop richness and complexity but not so much as to fade all the fruit. — 3 years ago
In 2012 they blended their two single vineyard sites, La Chave and Luc into this one wine. It’s a freak show. Huge olive, huge blackberry and huge granite. An intense earthy minerality. So so complex. Almost like a tapenade. Amazing aromas. So juicy and with incredible energy. Wow what soft but such fine tannins. This is incredible. Amazing texture and balance with just ridiculous length and freshness. Stunning purity. — 6 years ago
