April 4, 2024 - Fully mature now and on sous-bois, iodine, band aid notes. The fruit is dusty, largely gone, and there is marks of pine and a bit of VA on the palate. Time to drink up, and drink up fast.

June 11, 2022 - Drank at 632 with Blanco. No decant. Cherries and leather on the nose. Color is noticeably browning showing its age appropriately. Light to medium body, still good amount of red fruit showing on the palate. Many tertiary elements: leather, garrigue, earth and some spice. Good acidity. Nice finish. Fine example of an aged CdP.

August 3, 2020 - My last bottle and I am increasingly convinced the 2001 are some of the best in the last 2 decades. The nose was just classic and beautiful. Garrigue and spicey and lovely waft of cherry fruit. Unfortunately, the palate did not follow suit. Nevertheless, it was still a great experience. Drink now. I should say it was still good on day 2.
