November 4, 2023 - First bottle of VCC and generally a Burgundy drinker; that said I enjoyed this; lovely nose with plum, black cherry, floral notes, tobacco, a bit of damp clay; silky and elegant with mostly resolved tannins and a lovely sensual feel; ripe, but not heavy, decent acidity and a lovely finish with a hint of tobacco. Certainly ready, but no where near over the hill.

March 30, 2023 - Pronounced nose intensity with notes of sweet plum, char wood, spices, toast, black fruits. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin. Tannin is velvety and rounded. Drinking well now. Decanting will help to soften the tannin.

August 20, 2022 - A nicely balanced and softened wine in the glass.
Expecially secondary aroma's with some beginning tertiary hints.
Drink now, do not wait any longer. -
