March 21, 2024 - I had this at a walk around tasting so no detailed notes, but it was the wine to which I kept returning when my glass was empty. Good fruit and acid, tannins evident but in the background. Drinking well now but I would hold it longer if it were in my cellar as the structure is there. Well priced too.

March 10, 2024 - Short decant thru Rabbit.
Somewhat lacking in fruit; tannicly cheek drying.
A lovely aftertaste…. And increasingly moorish as the night continues. But a touch young.
Will be better with food.
Try again in 2025

December 24, 2023 - Decent but entirely unexciting (not to say, boring) Bordeaux.
Rather dumb to be honest, with the 14.5 alcohol providing a lot of heat on the palate.
At 10 or 12 EUR this would be at its place; the real price was 32 EUR and that is a bad joke indeed. -

September 3, 2023 - Decanted 24 hours before drinking. Dark ruby-purple, slightly troubled. Taste: at first rather firm, with quite concentrated fruit, cedar and still a little bit of drying tannins. Some depth, a bit of complexity. The 14,5% of alcohol were not standing out. At the third day it showed its big, rather massive St. Estephe character, together with really nice fruit with blackberry, elderberry and perhaps blueberry. This promising wine needs some two or three more years of aging to show its full potential, but is already really agreeable to drink now. For now 90-91, potentially 91+.

July 2, 2023 - Full aroma with a lot of fruit. Strong ceder taste with dark fruit to balance it out. Lacks the pencil taste. Tertiary flavors are absent yet. Does have an alcoholic punch
