Origin 05-Jan-19 (Shang). Pnp. Extremely slight TCA on the nose and palate which didn't detract too much. Very tight at first but opened up with some airing. Mushroom and red-fruit on the palate. Tannins still a little ungainly. Concentration coming through finally after an hour or so. A good wine, elegant and restrained but suffered from comparison with the Truchot MSD village.

Showing well for its age. Cherry cake nose and hints of cinnamon and truffle. Chewy red fruits in the mouth with meaty but sweet tannins. Fresh and doesn't show its age.

Domaine Ponsot Dinner with Laurent Ponsot and Danny Haas @ Cityzen (Cityzen): Meaty, masculine wine, seem very similar to the 90 but not as concentrated and don’t have the sweet fruit. Some tertiary characters like mushroom and black truffle but also shows cherry and dry cherry fruit. Noticeable tannins still.
