November 17, 2023 - Friday Group Brown Bag Tasting (Eagle Brook CC): Double blind. Deep garnet color. As my nose reaches the glass I am immediately smitten by the black currant, tobacco and graphite aromas I find. Full-bodied and fine-grained, slightly sweet tannins and flavors of red plum, currant and graphite. As it opens in the glass there's a hint of molasses as well. I was thinking mid-2000s Pauillac.

July 7, 2023 - Good density of tobacco, ripe blackberries, toasted clove and graphite on the nose. Good balance. Palate is a touch woody with firm and ripe tannins. Almost full-bodied. The huge structure is still hiding many finer aromatic elements for now. Finish is long and deep. Need a few more years for the wine to open and tannins to soften.

April 24, 2023 - En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Three (Bordeaux): Dark hued fruits, plum, liquorice, a little forward, a little over-extracted blackcurrant, leathery notes. Medium plus intensity acidity, grape and wood tannins are drying, black hued fruits, sweet spice with some slightly gamey, meaty notes and a little leather on the palate as well. This is quite forward for a 2010 (for me anyway). Hmm

November 23, 2022 - United Cellars Bordeaux dinner (The Gidley, King Street, Sydney): Biscuit, plums, blackcurrant, herbaceous notes, slightly meaty underpin, smells quite dense, a little leather farmyard and autumn leaves. Juicy acid, savoury, tight tannins, dark hued fruits resolve to blackcurrant and plum, non-intrusive alcohol warmth, long, balanced, pleasing.

April 25, 2022 - En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Quite forward for the vintage, leather, meaty, savoury black fruit, talc textured tannins. It’s rather lovely but I’d have guessed 05 or 00 if served blind.
