With extraordinary notes of blackberry, smoked game, cassis, graphite, charred meats, and spring flowers, it’s reminiscent of a top Cote Rotie from the Cote Blonde. With full-bodied richness, a beautiful, layered, multi-dimensional texture, ripe tannins, and integrated oak, it’s beautiful today yet will benefit from short-term cellaring and cruise for 15-20 years or more in cool cellars. This sensational wine will stand toe to toe with the best out there.

A forceful, richly structured red, with vibrant black cherry, licorice and smoky cracked pepper flavors that build tension toward medium-grained tannins. Best from 2021 through 2030. 500 cases made. — TF

Medium to full-bodied in the mouth, with a rigid palate and mineral tension, the mid-palate highlights a tight tannic lift. The finish is firm, with a mineral-driven, long-lived expression with elegance and precision. Only 490 cases were made. This will age well, so be patient with this delightful wine and let it come around with time in the cellar. - AM
