  March 31, 2024 - the last of my bottles - fabulous bouquet and while the attack is lovely, the fruit quickly fades - needs drinking

  February 1, 2024 - Another generous pull by a member of CDV713.
  
  I was told this bottle was double decanted well in advance of dinner. Distinctly left bank Bordeaux.
  
  A wonderful addition to a diversified spread.

  February 1, 2024 - La robe grenat est encore phénoménale à ce stade:on ne voit pas à travers !!! Le bouquet est intense et complexe: fruits noirs (cassis,groseille),tabac,cigare,cèdre,café,thé c'est réellement plaisant on ne s'en lasse pas.La bouche est de très bon niveau,malgré le millésime moyen.Une belle ossature bien ferme malgré son âge vénérable qui représente bien le côté puissant et majestueux du cab sauvignon.Cela devrait quand même s'affiner davantage au vieillissement.Longueur tout à fait satisfaisante.Un des vins du millésime sur la rive gauche sans aucun doute !!!

  December 24, 2023 - Poured and waited 1/2 an hour before drinking. Fill was to base neck. Wine was very good. Dark fruit and mineral notes. Classic Bordeaux and quite a contrast to Howell Mountain Cab that we drank at the same time. Enjoyable.

  April 15, 2023 - The fill was into the neck and the cork sound; decanted an hour before dinner. A deep garnet core, with notes of cigar box, dried plums, leather, and black truffle. Medium bodied, good focus and grip, with fully resolved tannins on the long finish. For those who love classic Bordeaux, this is singing a lovely song at present! Lovers of modern styled Bordeaux should look elsewhere. First bottle from an OWC.
