    March 13, 2024 - Bought en primeur. Well stored. First bottle. 0,37. Dark red. Coffee and roast aromas predominate. A bit of fruit. Great mouthfeel. Thick, mouth filling without being heavy. Well integrated acidity. Medium length. Very good. But not great.

    September 17, 2018 - In the secondary stage with truffle and earthy nuances. The fruit is just starting to fade, so catch it quick, before the remaining sweet, red fruit fades.

    April 14, 2016 - Moving into its drinking window now. Popped and Poured, a little air helped. Nose of fruit and graphite with a touch of spice. Medium body. One of those bottles that you look at in an hour and ask where did it go.

    May 9, 2014 - Another great performance by one of our favorites. Nose of black currant and honey. Thick palate, with prunes and unripe blackberries giving a sweet note. Smooth sandalwood transition, finish medium length, black berries.
