Saturday in diessenhofen, first BBQ of the year, pairing with steak - this wine is a bit too light for that. Will go better with pasta or cheese. Cherry, mushrooms, truffle, wet forest floor, vanilla, capsicum, very ample nose. Med acidity, med body, med alcohol, med falvor intensity, med tannins and med finish. Menthol, capsicum, mushroom, espresso, earthiness, like it. Not very ample mouth but enjoyable. Time to drink up though!

CdB BoG; 1/25/2024-1/27/2024 (Denver): Blind. Lunch. Guessed St Estephe, I think because it was so rustic. I was surprised at the reveal. Tannins going strong . Lost my notes but for whatever reason this just wasn’t as good as I would have expected or in comparison to the other wines.

PnP, in very good shape. Beautiful tertiary Medoc aromas with forest floor. Medium bodied, melted tannins. A pleasure, drink up
