March 25, 2016 - A great bottle here. In fact, Pierre said it's the best bottle of '45 he's ever tasted. Really open and decadent with flavors of dark minerals, haunting black forest and leathers along with notes of charcoal and black spices on the finish. Almost falling apart but hanging on just enough here to be something very special. Intimate dinner for 8 with Pierre Lurton in the rotunda on the roof at Nomad, NYC.

Interesting that our bottle had some more red fruit notes compared to what sounds like a darker profile with your bottle. Our friend noted he has seen considerable bottle variation the few times he's had it. Either way, a delicious wine!
