November 11, 2023 - Decanted for more than 3 hours before dinner. Very good match with the food, pretty much what you would expect of this one, without a big “wow” either, but nicely done.

October 22, 2023 - Clean cork with good closure. Deep garnet with minimal bricking up around the edge. Narrow clear rim and some sediment when decanted. Nose is eucalyptus and blackcurrant. Light on the palate with an elegant burst of blackberry and blackcurrant. Refreshing mouthfeel with the previously dominant tannins now softened and at least partially resolved. Soft velvet finish.

September 30, 2023 - Paulliac from the book. Lots of fruit, a few secondary an tertiary. Very smooth and silky. Drank PnP and was ready right from the start, and stayed in the same level for the next 2 hrs.
