November 17, 2023 - Decanted >1 hour. It has been 3 years since last tasting this vintage. Wine is more mature and very balanced. Still easy drinking and in a good window right now.

May 25, 2020 - Short decant. Recipe red fruit, spice and a hint of mushroom on the nose. Nice balance n the mouth with nice juice, cherry cola and something I can’t describe. Easy drinking but there are better Ayoub’s than this one.

March 31, 2020 - Cherry cola, medium acidity, pleasant finish. Easy to drink but nothing distinguishing. I did not have an OMG moment like I do with most Ayoub wines but still very good.

March 26, 2019 - Drank over three days. This is the least evolved Ayoub I've tasted. Very young bright red fruit on the palate along with clay soil but not at all integrated. I won't rate this as I believe it needs more time in bottle for a fair showing.
