Pulled from the celler, tasted it and decided it would benefit from decanting that did help open it up. Violets on the nose short finish. Was great on its own. Corked 1/3 bottle & stored overnight in cellar & finished the next night & it was still good.

Canon vs. Duffau-Lagarrosse 2009-2020 tasted blind (Fribourg): Dark garnet, Nose with some greens, asparagus, Pruney and raspberry jam, cough syrup. Green elements despite very ripe fruit. Feels pushed. Oxidative Maggi seasoning notes emerge with air in the glass. I think they have overdone this.

Decant 1 hr, beautiful wine. Has scents of red berries, forest, leather. Tastes of clarity, well balance and refined out of the glass. Tannin's lovely and finish very fine. Medium to full body. give this a few more years

Exotic blue and violet fruit, a bit of dark cherry and iodine. Silky texture, juicy and succulent with a tight chalky-limestone finish. Clearly a right bank wine on lots of limestone. 92+

Still quite young and not ready (imo) but was very enjoyable with all of the good attributes there to make it worth aging for a while.
