December 31, 2023 - NYE Vino Fest (Atlanta, GA): Tasted at the annual 2023 New Years Eve Vino Fest in Atlanta. BYOB and guests were encouraged to bring wines with years ending with a 3. No formal notes, just scores. This was not great. Past peak? Poured most of it into the dump bucket. Brad - heavypourwine.com

December 3, 2021 - Really good for a poor vintage, but at the end of the day it’s still a poor vintage

December 12, 2020 - DnP. Surprisingly dark garnet red, orange tinged, 5,5. Mature elegant bouquet, pencil, cassis, cedar. Elegant harmonious palate, almost resolved tannins, well balanced, elegant finish. Drink now - onwards. Beautiful example of a very well balanced and elegant Bdx in a mediocre vintage.

May 6, 2019 - Fine-boned nose, light and lively, full of pencil, ash, and redcurrant. Refreshing, herb-tinged and pencil palate with a lovely finish. 1993 is regarded as a catastrophic year and, while not a great one, it did produce some delicious St. Juliens.
