Awesome wine. Still fresh as a daisy. Such beautiful fruit - blackberry, plum, forest floor, cedar. Have been working through a number of 09 and 10 Bordeaux recently - they are not all travelling well. This wine a standout so far. I would suggest decades in front of it.

Decanted 1 hour. In Riedel glass. Deep purple, slow long legs, on 👃 well balanced red fruits and earthy notes — blackberries , cherries, cashew nuts, fresh cut fire wood. Dry, medium body, ripe blackberries & walnuts, medium throat burn, long finish.

Burg/Bordeaux Dinner with BYO Gang (The Kongsee): Deep ruby. Has a pretty classic Bordelaise nose what with blackberry, cassis, mint and fresh herbs and cut grass, cloves, nutmeg, and a hint of vanilla. Similar deep black-fruited showings on the palate and with sweetish green herbs, then pepper and paprika, whilst it seemed to take a slight savoury turn towards the back, of soil and truffles. Tannins robust throughout, and a long finish
decanted 2hours on opening hit by blackberries and cherries deep ruby red in glass balanced tannins well integrated to be edited taste just lingered in mouth for a good long time 2day even better wish I had bought a case instead of 4 bottles . drinking well now . Can´t wait to move on to the 2015 and 2016 years

Grand Jury du Vin - Republic of Georgia; 11/1/2023-11/9/2023 (Republic of Georgia then stopover in Paris and Dijon): wine 20 – Chocolate, ripe black fruit, black truffle, silky.
Afterthought – Ripe but not overripe. Generous fruit. This was a big monster but aged nicely.
