November 26, 2022 - My last, still excellent and really a slightly more elegant-with-age rendition of my 2020 note.
Should easily make 15yrs+. 91?+ -

February 6, 2022 - This is a terrific vin. It boasts a friendly, inviting nose, with an opaque, full body richness. On the palate, it's offering a silky smoothness, like an Italian blend, not gritty-girthy like some other yummies. This beverage offers a discussion worthy 90+ points. Go Lebanon!!!

June 11, 2020 - Nice finish. Tannins are not very heavy. Not worth £35, should be around £20-25

May 16, 2020 - Best part of two years since my last and has blossomed in the interim.
Packed with dense cassis, plenty of dry spice and a chocolaty veneer with chewy integrated tannins. Hint of bell peppers for more complexity. My type of wine!!
Now and till 2025 - sadly only one left.1 person found this helpful Comment -

August 22, 2018 - Hasn't developed so far as I hoped, but still with quite a tight knit focussed fruit structure and dry spice nuances that suggests a couple of more years in my cellar are in order. Very much more Bordeaux in style than its (justifiably) more famous neighbour Musar, but still with (I think) 90pt potential.
Hold till 2020 at earliest. Will reassess then.
