April 8, 2024 - Not bad - at first, very unimpressive. Five hours in the decanter changed nothing, it just tasted rather faded and past it. I considered chucking it, but recorked it and left it in the cellar for three days, after which a new wine entirely had emerged, much fresher, with at last some decent blackcurrant fruit, and a fairly long, elegant finish. Not really a match for the 2000 - it has neither the charm nor the intensity, nor, for me at least, for the 2008, but a perfectly decent bottle if you give it enough time, so it may improve further in the future.

December 25, 2023 - I put this in a carafe at 11:30 a.m. for a dinner at 4:30. With a bone-in ribeye and dauphinois this wine showed its power- a velvet carpet of dark fruit, a little pepper, and what can only be described as smooth elegance.
