Any chance we could get a Bandol from him?

That would be good. So would a Cornas.

You guys are too easy. I'd be curious to see what he'd make in Napa.

Best prunes ever!

Impressively ripe and full prunes...

The 01 VD is pretty old school to my simple and gout-free palate.

I'm taking you at your word, guys. Working on a 2 acres of unplanted land on Les Reynards. And looking for long term partners. First vintage? 2020!!!

This will be the first no till, no external input (except powdered sulfur at the beginning) all massale serine, grafted in the field, vineyard in Northern Rhone Crus.

Cambie will be consulting of course

Good news! Good luck!

Where are you going to take the massale from?

Eric has serine in Brézème and St. Julien St. Alban, so I'll bet a bottle of the new cornas that it's from either or both of them

Drat. Now I have to start eating more healthfully so I'll be alive to try one with some age on it.

That's thrilling news. Best of luck Eric - can't wait to try this out in a few years.
