March 28, 2021 - Ready to go, the wine has put on weight in the bottle. Now you find an elegant, medium-bodied, soft, chocolate-covered dark red pit fruit nose and palate with a supple, silky-textured finish.

March 27, 2021 - Nice pomerol. Do need considerable airing to open up. Very well integrated acidity. Nose and mouth of dark chocolate, dry and rooted oak barrels with nice mix of raspberries and cherries. Mated very well with a grilled moose beef and grilled vegetables.

November 21, 2018 - One dimensional, but actually not in a bad way. Still stand by my earlier note that it is best on its own - not with food. 100% Merlot. Time has given it some more refinement. Medium body, mild dark fruit, earthy, licorice, minerals and some leather. Very old world.
