    December 21, 2022 - Satisfying nose. Taste not on par. A bit harsh too and not worth its money.

Recently had other BDX of same age and similar rank like Petit-Figeac, Domaine de Chevalier and Château Belgrave and loved them all. D. de Ch will be even better later, though. Please let us know 2026 what happened when your first bottle's cork came off!
