    October 8, 2022 - Better than I remembered from 2017, this bottle showed great vitality and freshness. Bricking at edges, nose of black olive and oregano leads to dried clack cherry, loam, earth and minerals over a long finish. Simply splendid.

    February 6, 2021 - Still enjoyable but a little past its prime and fruit was fading fast. Nice nose and palate with great tertiary notes. Soft body with soft tannins. Good complexity, finish a little short. Drink up soon. (IG)

    December 31, 2018 - Vin en équilibre, avec encore assez d’acidité malgré l’age.
    Arome très profond de cerises noires, en filigrame: cèdre, champignons.
    Wow!
