    February 19, 2023 - This is very similar to my previous bottles apart from a rather disconcerting metallic streak on the nose, which did not follow through onto the palate. On the other side of the table, they did not notice this. Something to do with the washing of my glass or just different sensibilities? Good though.

    June 16, 2020 - A little past peak. I smell the "bandaids" I feel in some older Bdx. A little tart and austere in finish. Drink up if you still have this bottle(or cook with it).
