April 21, 2024 - 3 hour decant - silky smooth. Some pleasant berries detected. Tannins well integrated. Typical and lovely floral margaux.

April 2, 2024 - Åpnet dagen før - best dag 2 - lekkert tanninbitt på svartrød Margaux-frukt, blomstene begynt å komme både i hagen og i glasset, enda lekrere om 5-10 selvsagt men flott nå.

February 24, 2024 - 45 minute decant. Nose of tobacco leaf, black currant, and bay leaf. Black and red currants framed by caressing leather and dusty gravel, with black cherry and black pepper arriving later. Graphite-led finish with dark chocolate, dark cherries, and black raspberry topped with a hint of vanilla oak. Very balanced and complex and drinking well.

February 9, 2024 - Lovely wine ready to go. Slow ox for abt 3hrs. Flowers, strawberries , gravel and a hint of alcohol. Medium body with cherries, leather and crème on the finish. Not the longest or deepest Margaux but a good bottle nonetheless. Ready to go, with a few years left.
