May 20, 2021 - Last magnum, consistent with my previous note - simple, fresh redcurrant, no rush.

June 26, 2020 - Decent and classic. Took a little time to get going. Remains on the lean side.

March 27, 2020 - 3/6 A very clean bottle after the first couple had a funky edge. Pretty decent. Classic mid-weight claret. Lovely nose of pencil shavings. Little fruit, but nicely savoury finish. Perhaps darting out a little after 3-4 hours? Drink now.

December 31, 2019 - Opened and given a short around of air. Tannins fully resolved, nice cedar nose once the initial 'funk' (there must be a better word) had dissipated. Still plenty of fruit although quite dry. Had with a very mild, tomato-rich chilli and matched well no greenness, a bit of earth, plenty of life left. Enjoyed and great value at £20 for a magnum in a bog-standard French soupy.
