March 25, 2022 - Intense. Beautiful bright transparent gold yellow. Full body. A mixture of flavors and tastes: oak, vanilla, earthy, leather. The fruits are much less dominant, mainly citrus, lime, apricot and apple. A very complex wine, maybe a little too complex for me.

February 5, 2021 - WOW!!! A huge step up from the last tasting. Explosive smoky oak dry melon bouquet. Medium bodied with concentrated fruit flavors. Rich buttery oaky smoky dry peach, melon, pear flavors. Long oaky smoky finish. Good balance. Very Burgundian in style. Delicious. This bottle is more reminiscent of the previous vintages of this that I loved. Drinks well now. Drink now to 2031, possibly longer
