November 18, 2023 - Drinking beautifully right now. Good nose of dark fruits and tobacco. Full bodied with a medium finish. Drink up within the next 5 to 7 years.

October 8, 2023 - From Magnum. Opened 2 hours in advance. Beautiful nose with red and black berries, some peony, cedar,soft leather, dusty closet and sweet spice. Finely integrated tannins, balanced acidity, with lingering aftertaste. Very good!

June 12, 2023 - A few years since I've had one of these, and can't help thinking it feels a little tired. Lovely tertiary notes, but feeling a little brittle now.

February 28, 2023 - A peculiar position to post one point below the revered JL, but the onset of redcurrant as a secondary note was not expected. Pleasant enough, but is that a high enough platitude? Think we could strive harder. Perfect though for Tuesday supps.

January 30, 2023 - Medium-bodied, red currant, cedar, herb, leaf oriented wine with a slight rusticity to the tannins with a crisp edge to the red fruits and herbs in the finish along with a touch of dust in the classically-styled backend that is fully ready to go. Drink from 2023-2031.
