October 3, 2023 - Gornet. Nose of pepper, black fruits, touch of seasoned salt. Taste of black fruit, hint of seasoned salt, pepper. Medium weight. No overripeness, can age 5-10 years more.

August 13, 2023 - Great wine. Vital and kicking. Can last years. Has a very resolved bag of currants, lead pencil, excellent sweetness and acidity. Tannic structure though the palate fades at the back end. Really nice win, I bet large formats are even better. Folks who dissed this on release were wrong.

July 30, 2023 - Pencil shavings, leather and dark plums. Intriguing palette and long finish. No sign of the hot vintage in other 03’s. Really very very nice
