Thursday, November 10, 2022 - "The mind is willing, but the flesh is weak" (Chicago, IL): A phenomenally good bottle of Bénetière, at least for my palate. There's a concentrated intensity on the palate that makes me think of small, shot berries. Gorgeously aromatic black fruit, that's not over the top with regards to the ripeness at all. Intense and tannic with an entrancing spice note, this is a wine that has plenty of room for improvement with age.
