  April 3, 2024 - Light to medium body. This has closed down since I last had it a year ago. Fruit has subsided, acidity has increased. Fruit flavors are tighter, less expressive and feel like a cold vintage, not a 2018. This has clearly shut down. Finish is awkward. Hopefully it emerges better on the other side, not sure when! I will try another bottle in 2026.

  February 13, 2024 - Very brief impressions. Dense and sweet strawberries, and some blood/iron. Although youthful, this is approachable already.

  August 14, 2023 - This was excellent, transcending my expectations for the vintage. I PnP’d it and paired with Korean food along which it excelled. Deep ruby in the glass but not as dark as some 18s I’ve had. Still a touch lactic on the nose, it was marked by rose petal and a hint of Christmas spice. Lovely depth of fruit on the palate and plush as all get out texturally. I’m not sure these will ever get really tertiary, but it does still need a few years and I’d gladly replace this bottle.

  March 30, 2023 - Robe is starting to show some slight signs of age. Medium body. Nose is incredibly complex and fragrant, as is the case with the initial and mid palate. Into the finish I’m seeing this tightening up in a way it did not in my prior tasting note from 5 months ago. It is less expressive and open. Maybe something is funky with my palate tonight, but I think this might be starting to enter a closed period.

  January 29, 2023 - Not in agreement with some of the tasters below. Decided to check in on the vintage. This is far from ready or accessible. Very primary at the moment - all young fruit and tannin. 18 will require a lot of patience across the board, even at Village level - these need a few more years.
