Saturday, January 1, 2022 - magnum, double-decanted to travel. deeply-colored & youthful in the glass; black-fruited & loamy, pencil lead; med-full weight; currants & blackberries, tho restrained, dominate the fruit profile, black soil, subtle weedy notes & mature tannins complete the finish.

last one, purchased on release & showing better than might have anticipated; even in this warm vintage, house style prevails.

chateaubriand, chanterelle-red wine sauce; herb-crushed potatoes; roasted market carrots
