    October 8, 2021 - Super showing. Great balance and depth. As always punches above its level. Good spot to drink now.

    June 26, 2019 - Tasted in London in magnum format. 1st Cru in everything but name. In magnum, this wine has peaked but is not showing any signs of fatigue and will easy last another decade. A beautiful Tessons that evolved in my glass for over three hours becoming more lovely (honey element) every hour. Truly great for what she is. Enhanced in every way by the magnum format. Delicious.

    December 29, 2017 - In amazing shape and totally delicious. Can last another 3-5 years with ease. No rush.

    January 25, 2017 - I was expecting this might be oxidized, but instead I actually found it a bit reduced upon opening. The nose then opened up a bit to show some nice citrus elements, but the palate seemed odd and disjointed, with a touch of bitterness, and the fruit was nowhere to be found -- hollow. Put it in the fridge and came back to it two nights later. What a difference on the nose. It was really lovely, with flowery delicacy that was really nice. The palate was much better than the first night, but as it warmed it still seemed a bit hollow.
