  20 years on and drinking beautifully. Rich dark fruits on the initial attack with lingering notes of tobacco and graphite framing the finish. Outstanding producer, excellent vineyard equals: Yum.

  Drinking really well right now. Generous fruit with sweet dark cherries and plums. Secondary notes of pipe tobacco, forest ground and balsamic vinegar. Satisfactory overall balance and a long compelling finish. 94.

  Feels ready to go. Quite classic with roses, cherry etc. Generous fruit but lacking a bit of complexity. Still, drinking very well.

  Wonderful wine right now. Decanted and let aerate for a few hours. Opened up nicely. Dusty drying tannins on the gums, but not too strong. Medium to waning acidity so the wine feels a bit sweeter and fat on the finish. Still some fruit ... ripe cherries and plums, but also dried fruit, spices, balsamic and tar, earthy, tobacco, licorice. Nice long finish.
