March 26, 2024 - High-end Rhone Dinner at a friend's house. (Hollywood): This was quite interesting to have it side by side with the 91 La Turque. Great ruby-garnet color. The nose is much more forward than the La Turque, with red and black fruit, pepper, mint, anise and rosemary. The palate is hedonistic, with fantastic balance and power. Finish goes on forever. This will age gracefully. Excellent.

December 15, 2023 - Even better than last time. The immense black and cherry fruit is fully displayed to the fore with the tannins and structure right behind. Very stylish, not too oaky, very impressive indeed. Bold early maturity.

March 12, 2023 - Seriously impressive. Majorly concentrated yet not inky. The blackest of black fruit, integrated tannin and acidity, great length. There is a nice touch of earthy complexity although the monolithic blackness dominates. Surely at peak. Such a big step up from California or Oregon imitators such as Sine Qua Non if you crave more than fruit and oak.

January 18, 2023 - Started off somewhat light and pretty, gained weight over time and became more meaty. Drank side by side with a few other amazing wines, for me this fell a bit short. Perhaps would have enjoyed it more on its own.
