93 Points

Thursday, December 29, 2022 - Talking Bordeaux (The Kenwood, Mpls, MN): Very dark red/purple color. Slow-O for a couple hours. I'll stand by my notes from about 2 years ago; this young LB is drinking nicely already with some air, but it is going to be better down the road. Now how far down that road is the question. I'd probably sit on them for another 3+ years or really give them some air unless you have a very long evening to watch it evolve. Notes of charcoal, scorched earth, tobacco, cassis, slightly herbal with dried oak, deeply layered a bit firm. This just kept getting better and better in the glass all night. 93pts tonight and 93 to 95(+)pts potential.
