April 13, 2021 - Nez intense, expressif, dans un registre un peu austère mais que j'aime bien : fumée, suie, résine, cuir ainsi que du fruit noir en arrière plan.
Bouche dense, avec des tannins encore un peu carrés. L'équilibre est remarquable avec beaucoup de droiture.
Longue finale
Très joli, mais cela me paraît presque encore jeune ! -

June 23, 2020 - Mature, not that complex, a hint of acetone on the nose from the heat of the vintage and showing some similar fruit characters to 03 Ermite but without anything like the same level of depth and intensity.

May 6, 2019 - I didn't take notes, but I really enjoyed this wine. A nice balance of complexity, fruit, and acid. From magnum at Bibou.

March 16, 2019 - This bottle is fully mature, mellowed but present fruit, integrated tendons and pleasant finish. Perfect facility and tertiary flavors. Wonderfully complex. Definitely more advanced than my bottle last year. Most beautiful nose. Easily has a few years left but drink now.
