October 28, 2023 - 2nd bottle and I'm amazed to find that although it's moved on nicely from 2021, this is still quite tannic and drying, so I won't be opening another until at least 2026 if not later. Didn't drink it with food mind you.
Very nice Puisseguin though.1 person found this helpful Comment -

August 27, 2021 - Memory. No aroma/flavour notes.
Thought it might be a bit faulty for the first 10 minutes but it settled after 20 or so, became better after an hour, and good after 3. Nowhere near as approachable as the 2015, understandably. Food improved it a little. Seems fairly extracted so perhaps it requires 8 to 10 years. Won't touch another for at least 2.1 person found this helpful Comment -

November 16, 2018 - Le Salon des Outsiders de J.M. Quarin (Edition 2018) (Paris, Hôtel Shangri-La): Nez offrant déjà une belle expressivité aromatique (par rapport aux 2016 que j’ai pu déguster en parallèle). Intensité aromatique assez bonne, très belle maturité du fruit (mûre, framboise), quelques notes florales.
Entrée en bouche tendre, avec un fruit frais et réglissé, puis le fruit gagne progressivement en précision. Corps normal (+) à assez ample – le milieu de bouche développe un jus fruité (framboise noire et prune), épicé et vibrant.
Finale juteuse, fruitée, savoureuse et d’assez belle longueur se prolongeant sur des notes florales.
TOP VALUE dans ce très beau millésime bordelais !
