  February 9, 2022 - Last bottle of this from the cellar of PB (thanks for sharing), and while the fat lady hasnt sung, she's warming up, I think. It's a classic Bonneau-wine, concentrated, dark with accent on the stony look of La Crau, deep dark fruit, hints of alcohol. Still lively, but time to drink this, I think.

  December 16, 2018 - Good to see this again; served blind, and I was guessing Burgundy, this is the elegance of 1994, yet anther underted vintage from Châteuneuf-du-Pape. WOTN across the board, this had garrgie, very sweet fruit - en danseuse - silky, almost creamy. Thank you, PB.

  October 11, 2016 - An evening with Mrs. Sunshines husbond... (Søerne): So elegant, such impression of La Crau, world class. Opens in the glass, here is minerals, garroigue galore, beef blood, a manly, serious wine, no flappyness, just stringent local feel. Brought by PB and WOTN for me

  May 3, 2016 - Fantastic old-school Chateauneuf. Fully mature, for sure, but so complex and still alive. With Gert at home.
