March 10, 2022 - Opened in Courchevel. P&P.
This bottle was slightly over the hill, even if it wasn't tertiary just yet. Still has decent fruit coming through and some structure, balanced with good acidity and minerality. However this was just a bit tired and not very expressive.
It's a shame - judging by the other notes here there seems to be a fair amount of bottle variation, so perhaps I just got unlucky. -

January 22, 2022 - This particular bottle showed a little past peak, not tertiary or anything, but the fruit is fading. Higher acid too. A little out of balance. Still good and distinctly Rouget, but a little less fresh and pure.

November 20, 2021 - JK's 50th Birthday: Much better condition than last bottle. Nose suggested similar profile but the palate is deep, compact, and full of energy. Singing today. 93-94

October 29, 2020 - Booming nose that is bright red and black cherry, robust, spicy, big projection. Signature Rouget zesty tomato. Faint soily influence but moreover impressive for incredible purity and freshness. Precise. The palate is powerful red and black fruit, long, delineated, and texturally soft. Flavours imprint on a lengthy finish. Beautiful and excellent.
