May 6, 2022 - Just delicious. Plush, ripe red fruit and berries with hints of oak and ceder. Rich, but not fat or over extracted. Really enjoyed this on day one and day 2. A bottle of 2004 La Mission Haut Brion just opened is a staid and a bit thin in comparison. Good stuff.

May 4, 2022 - Delicious. Mature from 375ml. Smoky. Coffee. Cherry. Textbook Graves. Absolutely on point.
I should add that I have a full case of 750ml bottles, and based on this showing I plan to start visiting those over the coming years. This is still young but yielding early secondary notes and lots of pleasure.2 people found this helpful Comment -

March 6, 2022 - Pape-Clément, franchement, c'est dément. Jamais ne ment, un vrai médicament, qui se boit goulûment sur le chemin du firmament.

February 7, 2022 - I really enjoyed this wine. PNP and drunk over several nights and kept getting better. There is a smokiness to the wine (Graves attribute) along with ripe but mellowed and accessible fruit. The wine is soft but nothing excessive or over the top due to the vintage. Very nice drink
