La Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin (Vancouver) - Halloween Soiree (Hawksworth): Similar nose to the Caillerets but with more smoky oak rather than toasty oak and hints of baked bread. Charred citrus fruits on the palate. The oak is dominate but also fairly integrated. I slightly prefer the Caillerets right now. Both of these 03s have a good dose of sulfur/gun flint going on the nose. While there wasn’t enough acidity for my liking, neither of these came across as flabby or cloying. Drink now. Very good.
