September 21, 2023 - Needs a bit of air, a couple of hours, then drinking very well indeed. Not a heavy hitter at all, tar, roses on the nose, red berries in the mouth, tannins more or less fully integrated. Drinking a point, yet no hurry.

March 23, 2021 - Excellent. This wine has a round fullness without being a big wine. Tannins are very resolved, but still nice structure. Top notch.
