Saturday, April 15, 2023 - My last of these from this vintage. Like so many Bordeaux from this '14 vintage the wine feels a bit awkward, hard and needing more time, while the '15 vintage is so much more accessible, with more charm. There are a few standouts from this vintage, like Ducru Beaucaillou, but not this.
