January 13, 2023 - Tasted at Oinoscent, bottle brought by colleague.
A bit fruity, black cherries, smoky and spicy, but corked nevertheless -

April 8, 2018 - Are the unloved 97s the new 93s?
This was PnP and showed really very well. Surprisingly so. Cork iffy and crumbly but no complaints about this night watchman.
Rounded, balanced, elegance and nose all on display, and cheap as chips.
Sneaked into a 91 score, def not mid or late 80s. -
concorde Does not like this wine: 87 points
April 8, 2015 - Rather green and uninteresting. Midweight tannic structure, I doubt it will improve.
