December 5, 2022 - Décanté deux heures avant consommation.Nez très intéressant de menthol,réglisse,cuir,cassis.La bouche est suave avec des tanins nobles presque complètement fondus.Structure puissante et très belle longueur finale.Vraiment une très belle surprise un des meilleurs 86 bus jusqu'à présent...Et il est loin d'être au bout du rouleau....Très bonne qualité du bouchon c'est à signaler à peine imbibé !!!

December 25, 2020 - This one was definitely on the other side of the hill unfortunately.
No fruit left, mostly forest floor, leather and wood aromas and flavours. Short finish with acidity aftertaste. This wine is capable of so much more when younger. Luckily I have two more bottles of vintage 2009! -
