April 6, 2024 - Birthday party (Chicago, IL): Smells like poo, also some 2004 greenness too. Muddy and really not good. Never understood Ponsot. Ostensibly it should be good, but you can't argue with the results?

January 14, 2024 - Murky ruby-magenta with significant bricking throughout. Funky right after pouring in the glass (Coravin) but then settles down to show earthy aromas of forest-floor & tree-bark, reddish berries, dried florals, Chinese five-spice. Palate still shows sweet-sour red currants, wild strawberries, lots of earthy and floral spices, high acidity on the medium finish.

December 2, 2023 - Black fruited, limestone inflected spicy notes are followed by a black fruited mouthfeel with great concentration, ending in a long and powerful finish, the tannins are resolved now. Quite powerful CDR made in the traditional style.

October 1, 2023 - popped and poured. Nose was showing more leather and animal notes. Still got the fruit here but this was more muscular and rustic, not an elegant wine. Later we also got some toasty notes on the nose.

September 19, 2023 - A very ripe red cherry forward wine with some green stem/veggies and earthiness with sufficient acidity and depth of mouthfeel. The wine was best in its first 2 hours and started to trail off after that with the fruit fading and the acidity rising. Enjoy now as a near PnP.
