June 23, 2021 - Gang of 4 in Covid19 times; Bordeaux right bank (@ RW): In the bouquet creamy red and black berries. On the palate the same fruits, chocolate, good acidity and mild tannin which is still a bit edgy. The wine probably needs more air time. 88 – 89+

March 13, 2021 - Perfectly aged with coffee, leather, ripe plums. Lovely aromas but the structure caresses even better with body and acid in full harmony and the tannins soft and magnetic.
