February 12, 2023 - Still alive! Very light color, balsamic nose. Round and harmonious bouquet of spices, some red berries, vanilla, wood, oily texture. Medium length.

Nice nose with a hint of burnt oak.
Smooth and eminently drinkable, a pleasing mid-palate and good length. -

May 28, 2006 - Not such a very impressive wine. Fairly light bodied, a little butter, spicy and a lot of acidity. Will probably not get any better.
