  January 7, 2022 - 4/6, excellent cork.
  Medium garnet core, pale garnet rim. Quite sweet dark fruit profile, soil, spice, touch of sesame seed. Medium/full bodied, rich and dark fruited, tannins a touch sandy but attractive, vibrant acidity, decent length finish. Now and for at least another 5 years, but difficult to see much in the way of upside.

  October 11, 2015 - Good cork. Deep garnet core, pale garnet rim. Smoky, slightly closed nose at first. opening as it warms to sweeten and show more purity, mainly damson, black cherry, notes of vanilla and liquorice. Medium/full bodied on the palate, damsons, black cherry, touch of liquorice, quite generous but with perceptible, underlying firm tannins which become increasingly grainy on the medium/good length finish. A touch burly and inelegant, although better than the previous bottle.

  June 3, 2013 - DRC Tasting Group (Cafe Veloce): Tasted blind. Reduced. A bit more fruit than the 1996 Lamarche, but still a darker, denser wine. Rich, round body and fine tannins with great balance. Well integrated.

  April 30, 2012 - Ray Walker visits London (Chez Bruce, Wandsworth, London): Fabulous start with a fine exotic red fruit and earth nose, frsh and tannic on the palate, but it tightened up considerably in the glass
