September 21, 2022 - Resolved purple fruits and berries, sappiness, tobacco, herbs, and black rock minerality. Approachable, lighter and more piercing than expected, excellent balance. Drink by 2024.

January 1, 2022 - Hard to rate. Shows its evolution with tertiary notes. First sips: 91-92 but after half bottle, I found it a bit too much old. It still has fruits and a smooth mouth but i did not like the finish and the bottle was left a third full…wife liked it more.

October 24, 2020 - Ample, soyeux, coulant et long ; on en boirait encore et encore.
Full, silky, and lasting; we would drink it again and again. -

September 27, 2018 - Very balanced wine: mix of cherry and red plum, licorice. Some minerality also. Pepper on the finish.
Wife:94 but I think it’s because I made supper...
