  July 5, 2023 - Coravin fun - Brackets of braces (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Touch of fruit tea, slightly meaty and herbaceous notes, blackcurrant, sweet spice. Juicy, fleshy, black currant with a little red plum, slight herbaceous quality here as well, tannins are surprisingly soft and giving, takes time to pen but then all travels long. Nice.

  January 31, 2022 - Coravin fun - Bordeaux (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Leather, earth, slight pyrazine, blackcurrant, cedar, a little cassis. Juicy, slightly sour, savoury, fleshy, tannins are chalky and drying, leather, slight alcoholic warmth. Hmm.

  November 8, 2021 - Smooth tannins but perhaps overly smooth to the point this Batailley felt like it was past its prime, our dear birthday friend KN also thought so. The nose had beautiful floral notes, some jasmine after an hour, and plum on the palate too. Definitely no need to cellar any longer, I even thought it felt diluted towards the second half of the bottle last night ?? Medium body, average finish, voila.. done with our last bottle. Happy Birthday KN bro ?? Enjoyed the Parmigiano Reggiano ???? and Gruyere ???? too.

  October 25, 2021 - Surprisingly open knit for 2007. Perhaps even dilute. But quite lovely, enjoyable nevertheless
  
  Classy, charming…. though I can understand those who would criticise a classed growth for lacking required concentration and depth.
  
  Not for cellaring. No point.
  
  13.5% (probably lower), cork.

  October 21, 2021 - Leather, blackcurrant with a strong hint of smoke in the finish too.. what a Pauillac. Great 2007 vintage from this wonderful Chateau even though its probably a year or two past its prime, it still came out to play with a sing and a song with our US Ribeye ?? and Chef Yusofs decadent Wagyu ???? MB9 at Butcher Carey with the missus tonight ? Cheers!
