2015 vintage. The anti-Pauillac. Lean. Light. Feminine. Oodles of graphite with delicate earth note framing. Substantive, yet hushed, push towards a happy finish. This is just beginning to find itself. 04.11.25.

This really hit the spot & is firing on all cylinders if still very young: tightly wound & dense with copious quantities of stewed black fruit (blackberry/plum cake) and kirsch liqueur with a healthy dose of wet, damp Earth, spice, vanillin oak. Very sturdy & rugged through mid palate and the finish was the only hint this isn’t classified growth juice. Over-delivers for price point
