Coravined 125ml (again) and much more open than 1 year ago, waited 40mins
Still darker side of ruby vs other burgs but wouldn’t say purple
Candied rapsberries, strawberries, roses, green tea cinnamon, touch of longan fruits coming thru (has to be my fav flavor lol)
Palate fully matches the nose
Satin texture
Med+ finish
Consistently elegant!!

2nd time having this, pop and drink at the Morris
Transparent bright ruby
On the nose is again just heaven… intense longan fruits and dates, roses, licorice
On the palate is more distant/ closed tbh this time
Really good acidity and wet stones
Slightly more firm tannins than I can remember from last time
Med+ finish
Probably would benefit from decanting & not rushed - e.g. have another bottle to enjoy at the same time and wait lol
Look forward to revisit maybe in a few years if Morris still has it!!

On the nose, longan fruit and u know it, strawberries, raspberries, licorice
Palate matches the nose, more rose coming thru when tasted
Satin mouthfeel

Love! Amazing value for a casual pairing at home with grilled steak. Look forward to revisiting for sure!!
