I like this wine. It’s Merlot, with plenty of plum, blueberry, and black currant. It’s rich but not heavy. There’s enough tannin and acid to give it structure, which balances the new world fruit profile. Excellent balance, especially for the price point. — 9 months ago

Haunting Chenes nose. That combo of ethereal fruit and pulverized rock dust. God damn this nose is complex. Wow. Wood shavings. Tree bark. Just insanely complex. The breeding comes through. Long, juicy and Stoney. Really long. So grippy. So rocky. This is oozing class. — 3 years ago

Love this wine and last 2-3 vintages are the best. Nose has delicate berries, hint of barnyard, herbals and wonderful minerality. Palate is a dream. So balanced, fresh and pure with red berry fruit, gorgeous minerals and incredible finesse. Lovey structure and stoney sweetness. Sappy and deep. Wonderful depth and length. Really the most elegant Marginale yet. Still needs time to open. As it opens it just levels up. More fruit and sap. 9.5 to 9.6. — 3 years ago

OMG nose. Great terroir cannot be fucked with. It cannot. Black opulent cherries, hint of sweet wood, floral, dark, brooding. This is the EMO vineyard of Pommard. Insane and intense minerality. What mineral lift. Stunning nose. 9.7? 9.8? I don’t know. But it’s up there. Elite. Elite. Concentrated and intense but oh so young. Faboosh complexity and juiciness. Fruit is extraordinary but also needs air to show its true self. Man what a stoney Rugiens. Nose now showing kirsch. But a black kirsch. Energetic and so delineated and what insane fruit and finesse. Super complex and light as a feather but also deep, contemplative and dense. Wow. Stunning. A tick below 19. — 2 years ago
