  November 24, 2023 - Deep ruby in the glass with garnet hues. The palate is so dry, you can almost smell it. Nose of dark black fruit, pencil shavings, cedar. Ripe tannins, moderate acidity, a bit rough around the edges. Good, but not great.

  May 25, 2016 - With silky textures, forward character and a sweet, fresh, red cherry core of fruits with mineral essences, this is a Larcis Ducasse to enjoy in its youth while you wait for the 2015 to develop.

  March 7, 2016 - Amsterdam UGC Tasting and Winemakers' Dinner (Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky / Café De Klepel): Good presence, truffle, ripe fruit (slightly overripe perhaps?), quite a firm tannic structure. Ambitious.

  March 30, 2014 - 2013 editon of En Primeur - Kelly and Kevin’s excellent adventure; 3/26/2014-4/1/2014 (Mostly in Bordeaux and a night in Paris): Sweet and ripe red and black fruit driven, fresh flowers and mineral. Excellent concentration, jammy black fruit driven palate, mineral and noticeable presence of tannins but not obtrusive. Good balance.
