    December 22, 2023 - This bottle quite aromatic, with dried red fruits, soil. Medium bodied, fine-boned with vibant acids and firm, powedery tannins on the medium/good length finish. Enjoyable still but not as good as the previous bottle. (brought by AW to Noize)

    October 25, 2022 - Great purity of ripe red and black fruit. Long, linear and compelling. Will still evolve and potentially gain complexity but I wouldn't want to lose that fruit. Drink or hold. Really nice.

    November 26, 2020 - {2nd of 6, bought on release, perfect fill. Opened 2 pm, tasted x 6 hours} Ravishing scent, like an Amoureuses or Musigny, atop Echezeaux fruit. Killer wine. Complex, engaging nearing maturity 97 nose, 92 palate tonight. Probably best 3 hours after opening when range was 95-97 and length long.... Haunting, "peacock's tail unfurling on the palate" wine.

    November 8, 2020 - I think a good time to drink the last of my bottles - quite a lovely wine with subtle fruits and the tannins fully resolved

    February 12, 2020 - At The Ledbury with FC & AW. This was more youthful, noble dark fruit, mineral notes, a touch of meat/leather. Medium bodied on the palate, lightly savoury dark fruit, smoke, mineral, fine tannins, deep and expands nicely into an extended length peacock's tail finish. Excellent/Outstanding and early days yet too.
