June 6, 2023 - Well balanced and well made but a very dry wine - little fruit texture to attract. A classic right bank Bordeaux from a lesser vintage.

May 14, 2023 - Emirates flight. I thought this was showing better than the Quinault l’Encloa from the same challenging vintage. No tremendous depth or complexity but well balanced and cohesive front to back

August 10, 2020 - Light to middleweight on the palate, correct Bordeaux tones. Nose a bit light. Medium finish, tannins receding. Open for business, good cellar defender.

February 22, 2020 - Blueberry and blackberries with hints of green pepper, smoke, oak and herbs. Rich and velvety texture. Long finish. Drinking perfectly now.
