Ratings
Nice blend of Gamay and Pinot Noir. Black fruits, red fruits mixed with fresh leather and meat with some acentone notes. It has clearly developed since the last time I tasted it 18 months ago (while the price has dropped). Well balanced, elegant and easy going despite 15.5 abv.
Same as before, but decanted it for a longer time. Beauty.
Gamay and Pinot Noir. Powerful and tasty. Lots of strawberry with custard, yeast, vanilla and hints of meat. Well balanced, round and elegant wine (you even don't feel these 15.5 abv). Medium strawberry finish. Reminds me of khinkali with strawberry.
