April 24, 2024 - HWS Bordeaux 2009 vs 2010 (By me): Beautiful and elegant oak, tobacco and chocolate in the bouquet. Same on the palate, elegant juice with dark berries, graphite and beautifully fresh acidity and round tannin. Good length with a pleasant touch of sweetness. Young maturity stage now and delicious. 92 – 93

April 4, 2024 - Visually dark garnet colored in the bowl with bricking at the rim. The legs are slow and and long with medium to heavy sedimentation in the bottle (had to use a coffee filter after standing for 48hrs). After an hour of breathing, the nose is a cedary and dusty bark with dark red cherry notes. The body is full with medium acidity. The wine has a somewhat still tannic texture, concentrated ending in a medium to long finish. All in all definitely a nice wine but requiring a few more years of cellaring. Paired with angelhair pasta with white truffled meat sauce.

February 29, 2024 - In kind of an awkward teenage phase right now. Extremely dark color, but the nose is developing, with some primary dark fruit notes but also tobacco, beef jerky, and leafy tobacco. The palate tastes more youthful with plums, blackberries, some cassis, and spicy potpourri. Tannins are still quite aggressive, and there’s a bit of alcoholic heat here, but I think this has the fruit to make it over the longer haul. I’ll put my other bottle away for at least 5 years and see what happens.
