February 18, 2023 - Off year indeed. Expected much more from this house based on past experiences. I wouldn't buy this again even at $20 a bottle especially with so many good BDX options available under $35 these days. Will benefit from more age but disjointed and a bit harsh at the moment. No thank you.

December 30, 2022 - From 375ml. Double decanted. Deep black-garnet color with bright tones and clear ruby edges. Aromas of cassis & blackberry, with leather, cedar, clove & black tea - nice but somewhat reserved at this stage. Refined and harmonious on the palate, lifted black fruit with secondary notes of dried red hibiscus, tea leaf, crushed stone and five spice. Medium bodied, with plush density and rounded edges, well-framed acidity and thick billowy tannins. Finishes with nice length of zesty black fruit and a touch of bitter oak.

December 13, 2022 - 醒酒两个小时不到，深宝石红偏紫色，闻香有香草奶油和巧克力，森林地表，湿树叶，醋栗，黑果和淡淡草本气息，入口酸度中等，单宁细腻如粉，雪松混合着明显的石墨气息，黑醋栗的味道，还有些新鲜红黑果和水果糖的香气，酒的结构不大，香气活泼，余味是橡木桶带来的香草奶油味。醒酒状态非常棒，香气华丽，表现开放，细节精致，酒液丝滑，口感愉悦，可以早饮的一款酒。

June 2, 2022 - Part of a verticale organised by the château. Another red Bdx vintage I skipped in my cellar. Mineral and herbal (even some rhubarb!), lacking charm and complexity, this wine thins out rapidly into acidity.

April 25, 2022 - 醒酒一个半小时，闻香有石墨和青椒味，入口酸度高，单宁紧致，酒液咸，口中回甜，又酸又甜的口感，青椒，黑果和石墨气息，后段香草奶油。喝起来酒体有点水，酸度略有点突兀，缺乏足够的香气复杂度支撑。
