Power is starting to fade, ever so slightly; probably the victim of a slightly “weak vintage”. Lacks the concentration that I remember from a few years ago. Time will tell…I’ve been an advocate of this vintage. Drink by 2024.

Nose: Violets, cocoa, and soil; reminds me of a prototypical Margaux. Palate: Bright acidity, perfectly tart currants, very faint oak, nice earthy flavors, sweet and smooth tannins on the finish.

Outstanding--perfectly aged, had witgh prime rib and T-bones; even non-wine drinkers enjoyed it!

Pretty wine. Not as intense as expected. Don't think it has much more time to drink well.

Definitely moved into secondary flavor range. Still had decent acidity, smooth finish. Not much fruit left, maybe a little plum. Leathery
