  ESTG Year-End Tasting (Newcastle, WA): Insane wine, utterly insane. Unreal structure. Raspberry, truffle, mineral, just wow, wow, wow! So fresh, so mineral. A powerful and dense core, tobacco, graphite, cherry, truly exceptional wine.

  Not up to the brilliance of the last bottle, but a lovely wine. Deep brick. Gorgeous nose filled with mature, blueberry fruit, violets, minerals. Creamy, complex, charcoal - wow. Palate is a step behind the nose - mineral streak shows itself again yet things fall off a little quicker than anticipated. An excellent bottle but not a great one. Drink up (95)

  Clairement pas au niveau des précédentes que j'ai goûtées !!!! Problème de bouteille sûrement....Bouquet de pruneau relativement faible,bouche disparate,seule la longueur est au rendez-vous aujourd'hui.Pour une cote maximum Parker,c'est clairement insuffisant today....J'en avais acheté une caisse de 12 il m'en reste 5.Habituellement coté 95/97....On verra le sort que réservera la suivante.

  This is a great bottle, justifying the august reputation RMP bestowed on on release (but not 100 points). Big, luscious, extravagantly red fruited. On its prime, outstanding balance and impressive to smell and to taste.

  Ullage well into neck, 1.5 cm. Almost purple with only 2 mm amber rim. Excellent nose of cedar, cigar box, blueberry, dark fruits and like damp forest. Wonderful taste with plenty of fruit left for its age. Could have been a bit more complex and finish was a bit short of what I expected, lasting only about 20 seconds.
