Monday, January 23, 2023 - Plums and blackcurrants on the nose, with a little toast and some red berries. The first sip was disappointingly bland, so much so that I opened a Branaire-Ducru 06 instead, but I was proved wrong - a few hours later it had opened beautifully, with very silky notes of blackcurrant and plum, then a little spicy blackberry, and wafts of dark raspberry, hints of wild strawberry, plus a little menthol midpalate. It's simply excellent, a classic combination of silky elegance and real depth midpalate. The best Clos du Marquis I have ever had. **93 pts**
