September 15, 2023 - Sublime. Last of six. I wish I had more. At peak. Lovely, violet/rose nose. Tannins mostly resolved but still just enough to give structure. Powerful with good length, but still feminine. Beautiful bottle!

June 6, 2023 - 10 years on …..just a bottle of wine!
A Bordeaux that has not improved with careful cellaring and time.

January 5, 2023 - Always a huge fan of this wine and this one performing exceptionally well! Tons of ripe red fruits attacking the palate, at the same time it demonstrates its class in a graceful manner, rich and yet subtle, elegant, and rather poised. In a beautiful ruby red colour! Superb value, not to be missed!

September 15, 2022 - Another great bottle of this wine. More depth and complexity compared to the 1998 tasted alongside. Generous fruit, nicely balanced, good structure, fine length. Drink or keep. 91-93

November 11, 2021 - opaque with a ruby rim, aromas of black cherry, beef juice and tobacco, dark and sultry in character, full bodied, medium acidity, savoury flavors of salted plum, blackberry, dark chocolate and herbs, very solid, drink now
