Sunday, May 15, 2022 - A bit weaker than a bottle last year (rated 93 pts) as it was not as clean (some cellar stink which never fully went away), a bit less sweetness and concentration. Still, this was again an convincing performance from what is not really a good vintage. 89/90
TN: At first a bit cellar stink with time a bit purer but never totally clean. Lots of minerality, herbs and earthy notes, wet forest floor, some tobacco and subtle sweetness underneath. A bit of concentration missing but the aromas are fairly well delinated. Good tension and creaminess. Medium length.
Decanting: Not decanted. It needed time to open up and get rid of the slightly moldy, cellar stink aromas
