April 8, 2024 - This was pretty good, but not for the price. Day 1 it only showed graphite, leather, earth, etc, with barely any fruit. Day 2 had a tiny bit of fruit, but I couldn't tell whether this needs more time, or if it's just not going to get there.

March 9, 2024 - Still hugely tanic with a closed nose after a 90 minute decant....needs much more time. There is enough fruit to last 10 years.

March 8, 2024 - Tasted this at the Chateau Lagrange Wine Dinner with Mattieu Borders at Famous Treasure hosted by Infinite Supply.
An uplifting nose. Delivers pleasure on the nose and palate. Some oily brick wall notes. Ends with a tinge of mocha with caramel.1 person found this helpful Comment -

February 20, 2024 - Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow": Pauillac and St. Julien (By me @ the factory): Uncorked the day before the tasting and double decanted approx. 3 hours prior to the tasting. The bouquet is still youthful and lactic with cherries, blackberries, blueberries and some marzipan. Same on the palate, beautiful cassis, oak, dark chocolate, beautiful and juicy acidity and round tannin with a good bite. Is still a bit too young, but already delicious. Try again around 2027. 92 – 93
