August 6, 2023 - Big, full and still fresh. More modern CdP that highlights the fruit. Less garrigue or earth. Probably at peak, but I think if it's well-stored this has 5+ more years before starting to fade.

April 25, 2023 - Ready to drink. Tasted alongside Clos des Papes 2010. Initially, beautiful nose of fruit and a touch of country stable. Silky smooth on the palate with soft blueberries. Very shy out of the gate, needing about 20 mins of air to develop a more substantial texture and longer finish. I rate the 2010 higher at nearly every angle. But for for me, for today, this was the preferred glass.

February 23, 2022 - One-hour decant through a screened and aerating funnel. No sediment to speak of. Forest floor nose during decant. Wine was clear; garnet bowl lightening slightly to the rim. Nose in the glass of: forest floor, wild flowers and cedar box over a lighter blueberry undertone. In the mouth: blueberry, mushrooms and tarragon. Tannins quite smooth, medium depth of fruit and pleasant acid which made it a nice food accompaniment. Medium finish hinting at the cedar.
