August 2, 2023 - Two years since my last note, and I'm still enamoured. A RP recommendation on release, and in retrospect, one of his best. It is a fabulously decadent Pomerol which neighbours Le Pin and VCC, and at a fraction of the price. This is unusually forward for the vintage, and is at the top of its game with another 5 to 10 years at this level, if treated kindly. 95+

June 18, 2023 - Deep purple with a faint rusty sheen. Fully open for business after an hour of air. Aromas of cigar box, sous bois, and tobacco notes predominate. Fresh, silky medium-bodied palate with mouth-watering acidity that pulls you back for more. Nicely balanced and good length with some grip on the finish. This wine is in a wonderful place and I suspect well-stored bottles will hold steady for another 5 years or so.

February 5, 2023 - Vinetasters: 2000 Bordeaux (Park Ridge, IL): Served double blind. Meaty and sweaty, the way some Rioja can be. High alcohol on the palate, but without the high oak of some of the other riper, blowsier wines in the lineup. Only a moderate tannic finish, with generally good balance. Leathery profile. My 6th, group's 3rd.

December 15, 2022 - Very similar to the previous bottle but I’m liking it more. A big, plump mouthful of Pomerol. Fruit and oak spice lead on the nose. Some minerality emerges in the palate. Showing more depth than the last bottle but not super complex. If you are looking for a Bordeaux that packs a punch while showing some typicity, this is a good (if not great) choice. A touch of bitterness on the finish. (91)

April 14, 2021 - 10 Years Tasting (The same wines 10 years ago and now) (Martins House): Brussels sprouts, beetrot, vegetal, but a very nice mouthfeel, seemed somehow to be an off bottle
