September 1, 2023 - Pronounced nose intensity with black fruits, liquorice, black berry. Medium+ acidity and high tannin. Long finish.

April 3, 2023 - Tasting: A bit too much. A lot of alcohol, power and fruit - this is supersized.

September 3, 2022 - This needs lots of more time in bottle but it is showing already very well. No heat as the fruit really shows up. Crushed strawberries and rasberries. Needs 5 more years at least but should be very good.

September 2, 2022 - Amazing C9P! This youngster exhibits a great backbone structure, layers of dark complex fruit, integrated oak and tannins, and a compelling finish! Wonderful now, but with potential to develop into a 96-100 p wine.

September 2, 2022 - I didn't rate this because I thought it needed a few more years in the bottle. This will be very fine CNP in a few years.
