Tuesday, February 21, 2023 - This is pretty nice… And it took a while to come around. I had just pop and poured two very nice 2006s the prior two days I tried the same with this one and hit a roadblock. Yeah yeah yeah 2009 I know. The next day it was really singing. I know Ducs is a big wine and 2009 but this was a dark wine for Lafarge anyway. The next day this was singing. This baby was pure, dark black cherry that is still Lafarge-like clear. The wine was more cologne, than say perfumed, or spiced. There were plenty of lovely black earth tones. I marveled a the purity of this, saying to myself, I love Lafarge. While it leaned toward black and purple fruit, it was still very much Lafarge. While it was certainly cool to check in on this one, I would give it more time unless you have a half a case or more.
