June 21, 2015 - Not great, maybe even on the downhill slope. Somewhat tired nose, lean mouth and gritty tannins.

February 14, 2013 - Some mixed 2005 and 2009 Bojos: Dark purplish red. In the nose an orgy of cassis, very focuseed, incredibly tight, like a laser beam. On the palate, it's quite rough, very adstringend, but also clear and very mineralic. Rather short finish. Not as seductive as the 2007, but great potential. The substance is there, clarity and precision as well. But this needs to ease down a little bit, it's quite wound up right now. 89 with a fat plus.
