  November 2, 2020 - Zwar nicht besonders vielschichtig, erinnert mich sein Holzeinsatz an die familiäre Abstammung von Ducru-Beaucaillou;würde mich nicht wundern, wenn die ausrangierten Fässer von dort hier landen würden: Rote und schwarze Beeren, etwas Rauch und ätherische Frische. Im besen Maße einen Tick rutikal ist das ziemlich old-school und für mich allein deshalb attraktiv. Sicher ist das kein großer Wein, der supertrocken ausgebaut aber ach so typisch Bordeaux ist, dass man ihn einfach lieben muss.

  October 25, 2020 - Needs a couple of hours open, and I reckon these lamb loin chops with truffle salt and rosemary have made this wine much better.
  
  Opened a little one dimensional and boring.
  
  Give it 3 hours.
  
  Colour is pristine deep red.
  
  Nose gives off cooling menthol, dusty oak, and some
  
  On entry it sits medium to full. Plum, blackcurrant pastilles.
  
  Middle gets a touch soapy, before transitioning to more herbal and savoury flavours like soy sauce.
  
  Finish shows a little development, slight beef stock note with charry and rustic tannins. Time to drink up.
  
  It’s ok to good. 3/5 for me, high bronze to low silver. I can see why Dans are trying to move it on in Oz.
  
  The lamb on the other hand is 5/5. Smoking. I love spring lamb.
  
  On day five, after being refrigerated in a half bottle, this wine was better again. Soft translucent black fruits, silky flow. It’s moved in to ‘good’ territory. 89.

  August 29, 2020 - Ripe, dark berries, acidic, medium almost lighter bodied. Some smoke but tannins are pretty flat and not much of a finish. It wasn’t bad, but pretty forgettable.

  April 24, 2020 - This is pretty average at best. Not a lot on offer here. Ripe and crisp with sharp red berry. Flat tannin and a short finish. Its ok but quite forgettable
