Chris Tynan has done a terrific job with these 2013s, the first vintage he has made here from start to finish. Since his arrival Tynan has made a number of adjustments, the most apparent being a more enlightened approach to French oak and cooperage in general that is allowing these wines to be more expressive than they have at times been in the past. Readers will find plenty of the trademark Cliff Lede richness in the glass, but Tynan is putting his experience at a handful of top notch properties, the most recent being Colgin, to good use. In addition to these wines, I also tasted a number of single-block 2014s samples that are looking good.
