December 30, 2020 - Quite impressive, colour as you expect, bouquet partly closed (even at day two), elegant wood/vanilla, soft peppers, cherries, black currents, a hint of leather. The taste, like the bouquet, still hides a part of its dimensions, structured, dense, close to smooth, finishing with lovely bitters and lots of noticeable, but ripe tannins. Give it another 4 to 5 years.

Finally, SHOULD you be interested, I've uploaded specific info for this vintage, including acclaim, which can be accessed via the CellarTracker Article link (lower lft).

Thanks for your interest in my tasting notes.
Yes, I have decanted the wine in the morning (from bottle to the carafe and directly back into the bottle) and I have tasted the wine in the evening and the next evening after a night in the fridge. I think I've paired the wine with simple dishes (not spicy) undoubtedly with vegetables, one evening with dear and trompettes de la mort mushrooms.
I of course like wine, tasting and vintage information. I do not know, however, what you mean with the link with the CT articles.
Greetings,
