Friday, January 19, 2024 - Decanted 2 hours. Dark & intense, showing a little light paling to rim. Super nose with fresh dark cherry, violets and plenty of herbes de Provence. Palate is ripe, intense, deep - again, dark black cherries, a little spice (nutmeg) with floral notes (rose?) - good freshness with a zip of acid, in perfect balance with light-medium tannins (a good grip though). Long, long persistence. Soft, supple, balanced - excellent. I’ve had several bottles of this wine - it’s always wonderful and this is no exception. I think, perhaps for the first time, that it is at its apogee - perfect now, but will last. Excellent. Drink now-2032.
