April 23, 2021 - I bought this in Jan 2014 when i first started collecting wine. So nice to visit 7 years later after I shipped in from HK. Surprisingly secondary on the nose. Beautifully integrated tannins and absolutely classic bordeaux. This has aged quickly, but I guarantee, served this to anyone blind, and they would guess 90s bordeaux! I really enjoyed this, and for the price... Wow.

November 8, 2019 - 1/2, excellent cork. Decanted 1/2 hour, initially served at 14C.
Deep ruby core, narrow pale ruby rim - youthful. Reticent on nose at first (quite cool), then red fruit, gravel, spice. Medium bodied, spicy red fruit, earth, touch of mineral, nice bright acids, good length, earthy, gravelly finish, a touch sandy on the tail. Decent enough. -

May 30, 2018 - Still dark ruby. Good fruit, cherry, plum and touch of blackcurrant. Some earth, tobacco, iodine in the background. Good acidity. Still some grippy tannins. Middle weight but good.
