March 4, 2022 - Note: I use a rating scale on which 85 represents a very good wine.
My last (unfortunately) of three. Delightful.
Completely and perfectly integrated.
No edges of any kind.
Also, no need to decant. Pretty much good to go upon opening. -

June 21, 2019 - Summer Solstice Dinner (Jan-Dirk Taams' residence, Groot-Ammers, Netherlands): Tasted blind. Decanted. Identical to my previous note. Rounded, supple and easy. It was clearly very warm on the Bages plateau in 2003, but this wine deals with it well - nothing jammy and nothing green. Fully mature.
