December 19, 2023 - Did a head to head competition between 2010 Pasteur and 2011 Ornellia Bolgheri. Two different wines but gave both a 94 . Pasteur clearly held its own. More complex. Decanted Pasteur for 2 hours and Ornellia 1 hour.

August 13, 2023 - This is showing so much better than my last bottle a few years ago. Open an radiant, this is showing notes of black and blue fruit, but increasingly also red fruit, plums, some sweet spices, dark chocolate, some cedar wood, tobacco leaf, also some graphite mineral note. It‘s full-bodied, rich and opulent, but with still nice freshness of medium-high acidity and some medium+ tannin adding grip too. Pretty long finish. There is not much sublety, the alcohol is a touch recognizable, but a really nice fruit-forward and bigger styled Pomerol. It might actually get even better from here. (93+)

October 1, 2022 - My last of these. Consistent with previous notes, this is delicious, with a red fruit profile, enticing raspberry liqueur, along with beautiful dryness on the finish. Showing great now really, with the acidity of the vintage bringing a beautiful lift and lightness. I was lucky to source about ten of these at like sixty something a few years ago, which was a great price.

June 28, 2022 - De betere Bon Pasteur - Glanzend dieprode kleur - Aroma's van zwart fruit, aards, leer en truffel - smaken met mooie concentratie van paddestoelen wat tabak en chocolade - zuren in begin venster - Goede medium afdronk.
