June 10, 2018 - nose is a fine harmonious blend of ripe dark fruits with a soft, creamy, b note that becomes more incisive as airs, and a hint of classic graves lead pencil-earthiness. delicious, succulent but reserved flavour. tannins almost completely resolved; fairly prominent fresh acidity brightens the fruit. well-balanced with a delicate,long finish.

September 16, 2015 - Bought this wine in 2011 and wasn't properly stored for first year or so after obtaining it. Saw that the projected drinking window was about up so decided to give it a try. Flavors of bacon fat, cured meats, herbs layered against a back ground of dark fruit. I'm generally not a fan of French Bordeaux but I was pleasantly surprised with this wine. No noticeable improvement or drop off on the second day.

October 30, 2014 - ceder och tobak och väldigt mycket mörk frukt (körsbär?) för att vara så gammal. Drack först rätt sval och det fungerade till prosicutto-macka. Harmoniskt och välbalanserat, riktigt gott.
