September 25, 2020 - SLDS - PR GC: Raspberry, earth, cinnamon, roses and blueberry. Great balance and harmony with lithe, earthy fruit and flavour. Spot on and in the absolute zone for drinking right now, a spectacular bottle of this wine.

April 23, 2013 - Opened with Luc Bouchard in Hong Kong. I am so happy this wine has improved in recent years. Last bottle I opened at Xmas 2010 was "down" and I thought the wine was now shot. It is not! Perhaps just going through a sleepy phase. Anyway, I am happy to report it is in great shape, with a lovely peppery nose as I recalled it, and a good fruit / acidity balance.

December 25, 2010 - Beautiful peppery nose, deep red fruits, lovely balance in the mouth. At 25y, toward the end of its life, not as powerful as 2y ago.

October 3, 2010 - Beautiful colour and nose for this bottle sourced directly from Bouchard in 2010. Fruit was intense, but starting to lack structure. Good first wine to serve at dinner. Drink up.
