April 12, 2024 - Tribute from Thunevin (Bad Boy), with his garage wines, to his daughter Virginie. A second wine of medium body, velvety, with aromas of dark chocolate, smoke and touches of red and black fruits. Delicious on the palate. Already 10 years old but still very much alive.

October 2, 2023 - Mostly consistent with last year's tasting note. Maybe less blue fruit on the slightly more savory palate, and more earthy and cedar bouquet. Delicious.

January 5, 2023 - Drank over Christmas break. Quality nose, full of flavour. Decadent and luxurious, yet with a good touch of structure. V nice

May 6, 2022 - Sumptuous right-banker of ripe but restrained blue and dark fruits, earth, and tobacco. Structure here for at least ten more years, but so so good right now.
