April 22, 2023 - PNP. Cork wet 2/3 up.
Strawberry, mushroom with reasonable structure. Those that didn’t see the bottle guessed Gevry .
The fruit was still moderately fresh and concentrated with some background remaining tannin . The tertiary notes were present but not predominant
At :45 open the fruit began to fade slightly, so PNP.
I love the age-ability of Laurent’s wines -

March 16, 2023 - Drank from a magnum. Lacks the complexity of a proper grand cru but I am somewhat surprised that it feels a lot younger than I've anticipated. It can be approached now but I think it also has at least another 10-12 years ahead of it.
Drink: now - 2035

October 23, 2022 - Juicy acidity, saturated cherries, berries and brambles, textured tannins, long finish. Satisfying but short on complexity. This has the fruit and acid to age longer.

July 23, 2022 - Wild berries, animal, and cured meat on the nose and palate. It is expressive and layered. The Laurent oak is well integrated. Drinking beautifully. 92-93
