  December 19, 2021 - Ripe brambles, blackberry, alcohol induced spice, a little meaty note on the nose. In the mouth it's juicy, tannins are bold and grippy, fruit a little baked, again a little meaty note here. Hmm.

  November 21, 2021 - Cotes du Rhone (Frank's place in Matraville): From Coravin.
  Savoury, gamey, meaty over dark hued fruits, peppery spice, baked earth, leather, slightly oxidised...Hmm. Juicy, savoury, liquroice, slightly sour wild blackberry, meaty. Positively austere. alcohol warmth lends peppery spice, tannins are slightly chalky though integrated tannins.

  January 4, 2009 - Bouchon humide et mou. Vin décanté qui apparaît très léger. Nez frais de fraise et de fruits rouges. À la dégustation, le nez semble court, fruité, oscillant entre fraise, framboise et fruit rouge mur. Le palais est beaucoup plus long et collant. Collant d'intensité d'alcool mais souple. ÙUn léger accent de poussière sur la langue. Rond. Agréable. Sans être dominant en bouche, sans tanin ni acidité, laisse une trace agréable de plaisir.

  April 5, 2008 - Tannins are a little harsh and unripe. Still decent to drink with food and a decent value. Though it is definitely past the drinking window. 85
  
  Day 2: Surprisingly it is better the second day. Some of the harshness went away, though it thinned out a little. Overall a few points better.
