February 4, 2024 - 0.375 L bottle early Feb 2024: deep purple red color; bouquet of dark cherries and melange of herbs (like the Swiss herbs Ricola cough drops); juicy and fruity on the palate; long herbal finish.
1st out of twelve 0.375 L bottles bought en primeur. -

March 21, 2023 - Medium-bodied, round, lush and forward, with a dusty-textured, chocolate and plum core of ripe, sweet fruits, polished tannins and a touch of spicy, espresso in the finish. Drink from 2023-2035.

May 20, 2021 - Dark in color, the wine offers an array of scents, featuring black cherry liqueur, olives, licorice and coffee bean. Lush, round, rich and fruity, the finish packs in a lot of sweet, ripe, dark red pit fruits and chocolate. 91-93

Some rusticity/reduction; medium intensity, some elegance and lift. Quite mineral, some red elements and fragrant dark flowers and fruits, and herb.
Fragrant, perfumed attack, ripe fruit, dark flowers, mildly spicy. Very good intensity, good mineral expression, chalky tannins – very long and structured.
