November 7, 2023 - Very tightly wound and coiled up at first, so I double decanted and waited a bit. After 90 minutes this had certainly come to life -- lots of silky, dark & rich fruit, and pretty aromatics. Very tasty, although I found it to be a little bit muddy and lacking of the clarity and precision I'd hope for in a bottle that currently trades for $1200. Very good but not great, for me.

September 14, 2023 - Mature sousbois crunchy red fruit cherries strawberries mineral depth develops to black cherries later red pepper in nice way
Rich fruit, intense attack, crunchy explosive
Very pure, very intense fruit bomb
Big tannins fine but not as fine as Roussea, huge drive in th finish and very long
Small hint of bitterness on the finish
Gorgeous with years ahead, much more fruity and sexy than the Rousseau but not quite as refined.1 person found this helpful Comment -

August 4, 2023 - Second bottle of six, the first having been drunk nearly five years ago. It has developed well since then and is now excellent, although it has a long life ahead and will continue to improve. It has quite a dark colour showing maturity, and is opulent on the palate, with ripe, concentrated fruit, a velvety texture, good acidity and great length. Very fine.

May 20, 2023 - A step behind the '10. Lighter and higher acid, but the signature strawberry/white flowers/ fungal/ earthiness mix is there to intrigue. More persistence and "stickiness" would be nice
