    April 6, 2024 - Showing some age in the color and on the nose.
    Dried red fruit and tobacco, clean and precise but somewhat tired.
    Texturally wonderful on the entry but grippy tannin and moderate acidity make for a bit of an astringent experience.
    Good not great might be in a weird stage.
    Try again in 3-5.

    January 27, 2024 - A superb wine with great potential to develop, in an opaque purplish colour, smooth and yet dense palate, striking youthfulness, and strong spicy, ripe black fruits. A little closed at the moment! I had an hour of decant, it is clearly not long enough in my view, would rather hold it for a few years to see how it goes! Drink now with a lengthy decant or in the coming ten to fifteen years.

    January 13, 2024 - Davyd's Bday celebration at ESBK. Tasted blind. Drank in Gabriel Standart.
    Appearance is clear, deep intensity, ruby colour with a purplish tinge. Legs.
    Nose is clean, pronounced intensity, with aromas of expensive milk chocolate oak, cedarwood, perfumed spices, licorice, cassis, minty herb, boysenberries, dark red cherries, deep red plums, earth. Developing.
    On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium+ alcohol (14%), plush velvety high tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of mint herbs, cedarwood, cassis, deep red plums, dark red cherries, boysenberries, light earth. Very long plush finish.
    Excellent quality. Already drinking so well. Sitting in small decanter over 2.5 hours, it started off very balanced, but lost a bit of that with more air - becoming sweeter darker.

    October 16, 2023 - Super impressive. Glossy creamy chocolate, coffee and wet stone. Great balance.

    May 17, 2023 - 深宝石红色，闻香是漂亮的香草奶油，融合的木质香气，草本和李子一类黑果香气。入口酸度中高，酒液咸，收口微甜，单宁紧致，颗粒细腻，泥土气息混合着些许石墨味，黑果和香草奶油，伴随着后段的巧克力和木质香气，结构严谨，酒体扎实紧致，口感丝滑，余味是香草奶油和悠长的融合香料。还没完全进入适饮巅峰期的一支酒，现在喝起来正在青年向盛年发展的阶段，但是已经非常好喝，结构浑然一体，但表现却并不生硬，风格优雅柔顺，细节打磨得异常光滑，方方面面都处在一个非常好的平衡状态，今晚的表现毫无缺点，这就是经典的圣埃美隆在我心中的样子。
