  Decanting is really advised here at this stage or to be frank a wine to be forgotten for another 5-10 years. The quality is there the elements too and the wine felt very well made but was just closed and not delivering to potential especially ba pedigree and price tag. Felt like a 91 but frankly one to be left alone for a decade as it felt quite the backward wine.

  Fortfarande ung. Men fylld av mörka bär, lite lakrits, pepprighet och en svag ton av chark. Bra syra och massor av tanniner

  En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Sweet black fruits, a little peppery underpin, new oak but they are all operating separately from each other with this bottle. All the band members are there, and they know how to play but not together yet. I wonder (as it's already got 9 years under the belt) whether it will ever come together.

  想起比较复杂且有扩张感，黑莓、黑樱桃等黑果味，还有樱桃干和干李子等黑果干的味道，穿插着绵长的紫罗兰和暗色玫瑰的香气，时而透露出精油感。中后段出现些山楂的绵沙感，些许烘烤芝麻、木炭、黑胡椒、丁香和肉桂之类的香料粉。入口果味有一定重量感，和轻盈平衡，带有一点悬浮感。单宁较多且工整，有着细腻的闪烁，也比较紧致，呈网状结构收缩。有黑樱桃、黑李子、黑莓等果味，还有些甘草梅的味道。中后段多香料，还有雪茄之类的味道，余韵颇长。92+/100

  Checking in— 3+ hour decant and yeah it’s very young and very tannic. Not much to show at this point, mostly smoke, black pepper and some subdued fruit. Hold, or really don’t buy at all because there are too many better wines at its price point. Jaboulet, I think, is yesteryear’s news. Really nothing impressive since 1990. Young or not.
