    September 30, 2023 - Well this was nice ! Perfect to drink now, nice little complexity for a cru bourgeois at age. Hints of ceder, black pepper and fine red fruit. Tannins were still there but integrated more. Body was a bit lean but hey, pretty good for my 25 bucks 15 year ago. 6 finish excellent qpr in bdx

    September 24, 2023 - Sunday evening in diessenhofen, pairing it with a bio steak from singen market. Deep purple color. Sweet cherries, strawberries, milk chocolate, soft espresso, vanilla, some wet forest floor. A very nice nose. Med acidity, med alcohol, med body, med flavor intensity, dry tannins, med finish. Nice sweet fruit, green pepper, vanilla, chocolate on the gums, sweet pepper, some mushrooms, and a nice lingering minty and saline finish. This wine is at it s top now. Love it.

    July 3, 2023 - Ne jamais enterrer un vin sur la foi d'une seule bouteille décevante. Il s'agit de la deuxième bouteille d'une caisse de 6 achetée en FAV et conservée depuis 2010 dans d'excellentes conditions. La bouteille précédente était austère, tannique, aucun plaisir, et pas d'amélioration à l'aération. Contraste saisissant avec ce deuxième exemplaire. Bouchon impeccable, à la décantation on a un nez ouvert de beau bordeaux classique, cassis, fruits rouges, poivron rouge grillé, cuir, légère pointe menthe. La bouche est charpentée mais les tanins sont de qualité et ne sèchent pas, c'est plutôt sphérique en attaque, et la finale est crayeuse avec une aromatique qui revient sur le fruit. Puissent les autres bouteilles se révéler à ce niveau 91+. Mais la lecture des notes sur CT me laisse penser qu'il y a beaucoup de variabilité sur les bouteilles.
