May 3, 2024 - More impressive than genuinely enjoyable right now. This didn't live up to the praise I've read for this wine elsewhere, and seemed quite a step down from the gorgeous 2016 version. There's a lot of pretty red and black fruit here that comes out with time in the decanter and lightly floral and spicy notes, but it's also more oaky and extracted than the '16. It feels like a medium-weight wine that's trying to be a heavier blockbuster, rather than a more medium-weight claret, and it doesn't work. At the price, I'd much rather just buy Ferriere.

February 11, 2024 - Intense and austere showing blackberry, tea, spice and plum. Tannins are still pretty tight. However, currently pairs very well with sirloin. Tannins still need time to resolved. NI:3, FI:22, FC:8, B:3, L:4

October 28, 2023 - Great wine, will be incredible over time. Big fruit on the nose upon opening. Decanted for an hour+. Strong bright red cherry and raspberry, some blue berry, leather, vanilla, spice, maybe thyme. Dusty medium tannin.

September 21, 2023 - I kill a lot of young wines, can't help it. This is one stern mutha at this point but near the end of day two it delivered some aromatics that made the poorly timed opening worth it! The kind of aromatics that make anyone's obsession with wine understandable. Not to mention depth of fruit is fantastic! I will not touch another for at least 2-3 years. I will buy more!
