    December 30, 2023 - Delicious BdM, drinking beautifully. No need to wait as this is at its peak.

    June 20, 2023 - Gorgeous bottle of BdM. Deep floral nose with some leather, something stony, and ripe rich fruit. Gorgeous on the tongue with richness to spare, a huge burst of dark purple fruit, high acidity and fine tannins. The finish is super long, super dense and just f-ing amazing. I need to buy more wine like this!

    June 18, 2023 - Opened and decanted half. Enjoyed in Grassl Cru glass. Tasted with food (homemade tagliattele egg pasta with tomato-basil sauce, in case you were wondering) and then on its own.
    Dark garnet color.
    Nose offers some plum, cherry notes and earth. Hint of red clay/cedar notes.
    Good dark fruit with firm but not obtrusive tannins. Shows a touch of oak. Sufficient acidity to carry the fruit.
    Enjoyable.

    August 17, 2022 - Earthy but full-bodied. High acidity. Nice wine right now or in another 5 years or so.
