November 10, 2023 - 7th half of 13, pnp, stuck and pulled through cork, underlying wine again super and in line with previous notes, remarkably fresh and youthful for a 24 year old wine, impressive persistence, maybe upside, plenty of life. VF (18.5).

December 26, 2022 - sweet but not overwhelmingly so, this still could do with a little more acidity - it will be investing to see where it goes from here

July 18, 2022 - From a half bottle. Intense bouquet w. bees wax, grilled lemons and TDN. Very lean texture. A bit watery, very little body to support the sweetness and acidity. Disappears fast.
Drink up. -

January 1, 2022 - Last of 6, pnp, perfect cork and level, very lovely and in line with my last detailed note in 17, wish I had more as there remains upside here. VF (18.5).
