  March 2, 2008 - Opened on Open That bottle night. Tastes and smells like older bdx. Nice enough wine but short finish and not a lot of depth.

  January 31, 2001 - Full bodied. A lot of acidity. A good glass of wine, but I expected more. Lacks depth. It could be that the wine needs a little more time.

  December 31, 1998 - My last bottle and that is a pity because the wine is still too young. It is nice though. Still very fruity and no tertiary tastes. Giving it several hours of air helped.

  February 13, 1993 - Served blind by a friend. Creamy bouquet with a lot of cassis. Powerful wine. Creamy cassis, round. Some oak. A lot of good and sticky tannin. Full bodied and powerful wine which needs several years. 4 – 5 to start with.

  May 31, 1991 - Just a short note: Powerful and, at the moment, one dimensional wine. Loaded with black fruits and some oak in the background. Needs many more years.
