Really good. I thought it was a Moulin a Vent and was shocked to turn the label and see Vin de France. It's dark, dessicated black fruit, but not especially ripe. A little spritz blew off after an hour or so. Reminds me of some wines that I've been told are "carbonic" -- I don't really know what that means, but it has a distinctive flavor. Very concentrated and dark but not at all heavy. Great find.

Very very good. Drinking well now, will likely continue to develop. Characteristic notes of green pepper and pencil lead. Quite dense and saturated. Has thrown a bit of sediment.

Cool, ripe cherry red fruit, lean elegant structure, wears its 14.5% well. Drinking great now, should last a long time.
