I haven't checked in on this since I tried a bottle before buying. Definitely in a closed stage. On the translucent end of the spectrum. Sour red fruit and some herbs and forest. Still showing a bit lean and unforthcoming. I think a little bottle sweetness would bring it together. Another 5 years.

Decanted briefly. Delicious mineral earth on the palate with tart acid not quite integrated into the body and youthful tannins. I think this needs a bit more time to show at its best. 92+

First four hours: Grapefruit juice - blech. After six-seven hours: less tartness and acidity, a (tiny) bit more fruit, still a major disappointment.

Tasted from magnum. Very stemmy nose, quite green and takes a while to relax. The fruit is scarce … disappointing.

Massive disappointment. Very light in color and flavor. Nothing of real interest going on. Another cellar bust. I'm starting to worry about my '14s.
