March 13, 2024 - Bought en primeur. Well stored. First bottle. 0,37. Dark red. Coffee and roast aromas predominate. A bit of fruit. Great mouthfeel. Thick, mouth filling without being heavy. Well integrated acidity. Medium length. Very good. But not great.

May 9, 2014 - Another great performance by one of our favorites. Nose of black currant and honey. Thick palate, with prunes and unripe blackberries giving a sweet note. Smooth sandalwood transition, finish medium length, black berries.
