February 2, 2024 - Not clean, or pure. Very disappointing as the La Favorite 2016 was fantastic.

August 19, 2023 - Ruby red colour. Flowers, pomegranate and wild raspberries on the nose. Taste of red berries, spices and minerals. Good complexity with long and firm tannins and a long finish. Needs at least four more years in the cellar to really shine. Goes well with pork and veal.

August 17, 2023 - Typical sediment. Medium red.
Primarily strawberry fruits. Slightly ethereal.
Red fruited. Flavours are fading gently. Last bottle and should be drunk up.
