MicklethePickle Likes this wine: 93 points
July 26, 2023 - Popped and poured. Better than the Branaire I just tasted. Showing much more depth and character. Still, given the great scores this wine has received to date, I am a bit underwhelmed. Is my palate on the wane tonight? It does happen. At least to me. Impressive, but not as impressive as I expected. 5-13-16-9: 93/100.

This is absurdly young, and I know the drinking window is not likely open for another three years per CT. I just wanted to try it for the first time since I recently bought two more bottles. Thanks for the comments. Cheers!
