April 6, 2024 - Beautiful, rich nose loaded with ultra ripe boysenberry, bay leaf, wild blue and blackberries as well as some Asian spices. Medium-full bodied, this is rich and round and fully mature with plenty of life left. Well-stored bottles should reach 20 (max) in good shape. Drink now-2032 92

February 23, 2023 - I had no problem with the funk the first night. However, that receded tonight and was very smooth. Classic CDP!

August 28, 2022 - Gave it an hour in decanter and was very nice indeed. Same score as first bottle although I enjoyed this one more!

August 19, 2022 - This really needs some time to breathe as right out the bottle it is a little harsh with high alcohol dominating. After some time in decanter it opens up really nicely with plum, strawberry, some spice, then a savoury note at the end. Tannins are quite smooth but add nice structure. This is quite a powerful wine. Good stuff!
