This bottle quite aromatic, with dried red fruits, soil. Medium bodied, fine-boned with vibant acids and firm, powedery tannins on the medium/good length finish. Enjoyable still but not as good as the previous bottle. (brought by AW to Noize)

Great purity of ripe red and black fruit. Long, linear and compelling. Will still evolve and potentially gain complexity but I wouldn't want to lose that fruit. Drink or hold. Really nice.

{2nd of 6, bought on release, perfect fill. Opened 2 pm, tasted x 6 hours} Ravishing scent, like an Amoureuses or Musigny, atop Echezeaux fruit. Killer wine. Complex, engaging nearing maturity 97 nose, 92 palate tonight. Probably best 3 hours after opening when range was 95-97 and length long.... Haunting, "peacock's tail unfurling on the palate" wine.

At The Ledbury with FC & AW. This was more youthful, noble dark fruit, mineral notes, a touch of meat/leather. Medium bodied on the palate, lightly savoury dark fruit, smoke, mineral, fine tannins, deep and expands nicely into an extended length peacock's tail finish. Excellent/Outstanding and early days yet too.

I think a good time to drink the last of my bottles - quite a lovely wine with subtle fruits and the tannins fully resolved
