    February 27, 2024 - Le nez est légèrement avancé avec ses notes de sous-bois ainsi qu'une belle touche terreuse sans tomber dans l'excès. Les fruits rouges et noirs sont présents en arrière plan. En bouche c'est beaucoup plus expressif et généreux ! Un vin aux aromes secondaires possédant assez de fruit pour nous donner un magnifique vin mature typique de la région.
    Si vous posséder une bouteille, c'est à boire maintenant.

    February 2, 2024 - DM Wine Dinner (Canary Club, New York, NY): Well past it’s peak. A beauty in its day.

    October 7, 2023 - Decanted one hour. Lots of sediment in this so need a proper decant. Black cherry and currant, earth, smoked meats, tar and little barnyard. A little rustic. Holding up really well though and a fine example of this wine after four decades.

    August 27, 2023 - Still plenty of life. Needed some air and time to blow off some funk, but opened nicely. Still plenty of fruit, great length.
