March 14, 2023 - PnP. Ruby, medium transparent. Youthful looking. Muted red fruit nose. Tannic, thin, bright red fruit taste. Opened up a bit over time. Not sure about this.

March 4, 2023 - Last tasted 3 years ago, and it has developed in the interim and has started to display Pomerol characteristics. It really punches above its weight and is relatively good value for money. I also feel the wine has a structure to keep at this level for the next decade. There is no real need to decant.

November 22, 2022 - Decanted for a short time (there's a little fine sediment, so decanting is definitely recommended).
Lovely deep colour, and plenty of warm fruit on the nose. On the palate it's a classic right-bank Merlot-dominated wine, very complete and fruit-driven but with plenty of underlying structure. Satisfying and elegant on the finish.
Really very good indeed for this price point. -

July 17, 2022 - Opened tonight (PNP). Blood red, quite opaque. Weak legs. Pretty gutsy nose, with earth, raspberry, and floral aromas; very primary but developing. Big bruiser in the mouth, on the rustic side, with tannin on the sharp side and noticeable oak and alcohol. Not terribly enjoyable, at least not on PNP. Still needs quite a bit of time--five years at least, and I hope the fruit can survive that long. 4-11-14-8: 87/100.

April 5, 2022 - A very different experience to the last bottle. Young, green vegetable tastes. Round, but only quite enjoyable.
Will try again tomorrow eve after 24 hours vacvin’d…. Much more together and enjoyable on Eve 2. On the showing of this bottle suggest trying again in Spring 23.
