March 26, 2024 - High-end Rhone Dinner at a friend's house. (Hollywood): Basically showed exactly the same than when I had it 4 years ago. Deep garnet almost ruby color. Dark fruit, leather and roasted meat on on the nose. Incredibly complex. Full body, integrated tannins with a perfect balance between flavors and acidity. Goes on forever. Amazing.

August 13, 2023 - Tasted blind, this wine had a deep red center with puce rims. The medium+ intensity nose generated black cherry, mineral, pomegranate, pepper, and roasted herb notes.
In the mouth, this wine was rich and ripe with substantial rounded tannin, good acidity, and great length.
Despite its drama, this wine still seems a touch young. Expect another point or so of improvement over the next 5 years.
