    April 13, 2024 - This was drunk with friends tonight at a restaurant. It's a beautiful garnet colored wine. It's just into its drinking window at 20 years of age. It's a medium bodied wine with a mellowed consistency. The flavors are very typical of a Pomerol with the olive accent. Drink now or over the next 10 years.

    January 29, 2022 - Gorgeous nose but a little lacking on the palate. Maybe just needed a little more air time? Certainly felt mature and ready to drink but the palate just didnt live up to the nose.

    September 4, 2021 - A beautiful nose, great fruit and good concentration. A lovely wine that is fully ready to drink. One of my favorite Pomerol properties.

    June 17, 2021 - Fragrant nose of sweet-spicy red fruits, dark in colour, lacking a bit focus on the palate!

    April 3, 2021 - Prominent bouquet of leather, thyme, dry blackberries and earthy nuance. Surprisingly lack of the plummy notes in this Pomerol. Palate is quite structured and tight, with forward herbaceous notes and fresh fennel. The rest of the aromatic elements are hiding behind the medium to full-bodied palate which is still somewhat opaque. But it is fresh. Transitions from entry to finish is chalky for now. Still need more time in the bottle. Taste this in another 3 years.
