November 24, 2023 - Decanted for 2.5 hours. The wine is still relatively young. Even if it is already very good now, it will certainly get even better with 5 (or 10) more years in the cellar. I would like to try the wine again in 10 years. 94 pts. at the moment.

July 8, 2023 - Thick, concentrated, intense... but all in the right spot. An absolutely glorious wine.

October 18, 2022 - Magnificent! Another vintage of my favorite wine is exemplary.
Drank with a friend after 3-hour decant.
Deep ruby with minimal sediment, this wine is mature.
Exhilarating nose of dark fruit, raspberry and chocolate.
We both agreed 98 is the appropriate score.
Easily on par with the best Bordeaux, the finish lasts a minute.
If a date, this was a 35 year old Harvard-educated executive who collects lingerie and loves pleasure.
20 years of intense pleasure ahead.
Still one of my favorite red wines anywhere.3 people found this helpful Comment -
