March 14, 2024 - No notes. Unfair to rate within the lineup but even with the grouping it is a beautiful wine. Delivers on all fronts for a 14 year old Bordeaux and doesn’t have the hard structure of many 2010s at this point. Beautiful wine, lots to enjoy here. 92-93

January 13, 2024 - Took 1.5 hours and this became just as I remembered- beautiful wine drinking at its peak which will stay for another ~5-10 years. Won’t repeat previous notes. Delicious!!

November 16, 2023 - Sauvage, black cherry, meat drippings, and sanguine notes creep along the palate, ending in a clip of dusty tannins on back end that seem to disallow the flavors from fully expanding. This bottle comes off older than the vintage would indicate. Better with food, but as a standalone, it’s fairly reticent and grandmotherly.

June 22, 2023 - We loved this wine. Red Cherry nose--no barnyard. Long finish. Black fruit, leather, graphite--soft trannins--delicious and underrated in my opinion.
