It’s still Rosé season in South America! — a year ago
Tons of leather and tobacco on the nose. Very viscus. BlackBerry and cherry on the tongue. Great wine. — 7 months ago
Profile naturel, notes de maquis. Un peu d’âge (2019) donc on commence à avoir des arômes d’intérieur cuiré et boisé. Mais on a aussi de l’épice et du poivré, presque du goudronné. Super accompagnement de mets d’intensité moyenne, viande grasse, légume confits — a year ago
Tastes like summer bbq in the maquis. — 8 years ago
Gran Reserva Cab Franc. Very nice structure, tannic backbone, and dusty fruit balance. Enjoyable and age worthy. — 8 years ago
Red and black fruit, has that “it’s South American” extraction, tannin, wood and fruit thing. 60% cab franc, 28% carmeniere, 11% cab sauv. — 9 months ago
Rustic and developed. Stewed plums, medicinal black cherry, maquis herbs, muddy soil, wet stoneware pottery, tobacco and tomato leaf. Palate is intense, concentrated, and shows younger than the nose. 14% alcohol isn’t hiding, but is nearly balanced by silty tannin and juicy acidity. Rounder and darker than the Italian Sangiovese which may or may not be genetically related. Interesting wine, well paired with a casual bolognese style pasta. — 5 years ago
