89 Points

Sunday, March 3, 2024 - Nose: Smokey cassis, moist earth. Palate: Woody blackberries, boysenberries, burnt coffee grounds, polished tannins, bitterness is a bit overwhelming at first but mellows in the glass. On day two, cedar becomes more prominent and comes into balance with some anise and a ripe dark cherry that comes forward. Much better on day two and suggests to me that if you're opening one of these, it'd be best to give it a nice long decant. Surprisingly, the tannins were very approachable for a young classed Bordeaux.
