April 8, 2023 - Got this in a wine society mystery case of wines that may be past their best. No signs of being past it. Delicious.

September 22, 2021 - Showing brick color, has reached its aging potential, will start declining in a fee years, tertiary aromas, complex, mid length. Will not get better, drink up and enjoy.

July 7, 2018 - Plusieurs de bues, il commence a avoir du charme. Côté terreux et sévère un brin. Somme toute agréable. Pourrait gagner encore un peu de maturité. Attention au dépôt !
