  February 1, 2024 - From a magnum. One-hour decant through a screened and aerating funnel. Classic lead pencil aroma during decant. Wine was clear; dark crimson bowl to a very slight brick rim. After resting, the wine was classic Bordeaux: black currant and lead pencil in both the nose and the mouth. Smooth in the mouth, tannins in full retreat. The wine gained a little weight during the evening and this was just a lovely Bordeaux with a long finish that made me wish I had another!
