February 27, 2023 - Dark red color with little sign of aging. Nose is more advanced with leather combined with all kinds of fruit aromatics.The palate is rich and opulent, almost a tad too heavy. Good finish but not the most delicate or elegant Pomerol.
November 25, 2022 - Deep opaque garnet w/ deep red edge. Nose of tanned leather, red fruits, cherry & red licorice. On the palate: creamy mouthfeel expressing red berries, baking spices, plums w/ a hint of yellow pepper. Tannins are well integrated, but still have grip; felt mostly on cheeks and gums. Long, somewhat astringent finish of red fruit and wood spice.
August 9, 2022 - just lovely - decanted for 3 hours before enjoying;plenty of body with ample fruit
January 19, 2022 - Still too young to open, it took 4 or 5 hours in decanter to show up. But really good wine with dark fruit, charcoal, earthy. Long aftertaste. I think score would go up in time.
August 8, 2021 - Sunday afternoon with my friend pinnacle @ Duxton. Deep ruby Color. Dried berries, menthol, green capsicum, black pepper, vanilla on the nose. Med acidity, Med alcohol, Med body, Med tannins, Med+ flavor intensity, Med+ finish. Creamy mouth, green capsicum, vanilla, black pepper, herbal Provencial notes, excellent! This wine is ready to drink now but you can still keep it a couple of years without worrying too much about it.
December 19, 2020 - Black fruits (black cherry, plum) with red notes and some lead pencil riding on top. Great typicity on the palate - black fruit, velvety and smooth. Medium bodied. Tannins nicely resolved but still grippy. Round, voluptuous finish. Very enjoyable.
September 2, 2020 - Well resolved tannins, just a very pleasant drink but no fireworks
December 12, 2019 - Lovely wine - agree with Jeff. Medium bodied and doing everything right in terms of lively mixed with plumb cocoa depth . Feels so sure of itself , a real pleasure to drink although not mind blowing. Thanks to PMFW
April 18, 2019 - Fine Wines SG - “Judgement of Paris” Bordeaux Blend Dinner (The Communal Bistro Delicacy - CBD): Quite a bit of smoke and pencil shaving, on top of the blackberry, and some paprika
November 12, 2018 - Medium bodied, soft, elegant, fresh and loaded with red and black plums, light truffle and cocoa overtones, this refined wine is ready to go with just a splash decant.
