Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Saturday, July 1, 2023 - Layered bouquet of violets, purple and black berries, tobacco, worn leather, savory herbs, graphite, and gravel. Oak, while noticeable, gives every indication that it will integrate. In sum, appealing and vivacious.

Intense attack, broad and gripping middle, rustic back, substantive finish. Nothing out of place. This has begun to shut down. Medium plus acid and bracing tannins prominent.

Time will serve this well, with improvement likely. Recommend holding bottles for several years. All elements point to no less than a two decade maturation, from vintage. Markedly better quality than the technically excellent but otherwise vapid Clerc Milon. 93-94.
