Showing some browning and appearing somewhat muddled, this bottle nonetheless had an expressive nose and intact palate. Good spice tones. 92-93

A somewhat discombobulated bottle with a muddled palate. Sweet red fruit, some damp earth, but not much complexity here. Pleasing though.

Initial attractive funk on the nose eventually gave way to a much riper profile. A more red fruit defined bottle than some others. Could have benefited from more bottle time.

Some Wine Tasted at the Zachys La Paulée Auction; 3/7/2019-3/8/2019 (Le Bernardin Prive - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Great nose of mushroom, earth, mature red cherry and floral hints. Less excited on palate, but I was told it was more interesting when opened 4 hours earlier.

Jasper Volnay. Floral and unexpected green-stem notes. Lucid, pure and graceful red fruit to sour plum palate with depth. Terrific.
