  My comments from August 2020 still apply.
  It’s a pleasure to drink, and still very robust, but the full fruit flavour is beginning to fade

  Still a dark and robust colour. Beautiful nose of aged fruit.
  Starting to lose a little fruit on the front and middle palate, but still an excellent wine

  Dernière bouteille qui a rendu. Beau fruit toujours. Tannins assouplis. Mûres, cannelle, anis, poivre et cuir.

  A lovely nose of blackcurrant and prune with slight meaty aromas and spice and restrained oak. There are fine tannins and a good viscosity and medium length. Drinking well now.

  This has entered a very nice zone - plenty of fruit on the nose and palate, but some tertiary nuances have emerged. Very pleasant mouthfeel with mature tannins, this has good weight and concentraction. Medium bodied. Not a showy wine, but a lovely, solid effort.
