Emirates First Class Lounges, Dubai; 2/13/2023-2/18/2023: Deeper nose than the Bichot GC Justice 2014, earth, mineral. Lovely line and silky texture on entry, focused midpalate, mineral flecks, polished, tannins mostly resolved, well-integrated acid spine.

This wine is starting to balance out and lose the greenness. It still needs an hour to open up. Cherry notes and medium weight, with depth and salinity in the finish.

Once it has air, at least an hour and probably two, this wine opens, develops greater nose, body and finish. There is great depth. I’m going to wait a few more years on this one’s sisters.

Ficofi tasting- A slightly green nose with black fruit, oak, spice and berries. Palate has the vintage character of under-ripeness with an acidic finish. 88 pt

a bit green on the edges - not that impressive.
