Generously brought by MN (as if he hadn’t done enough!) to the apres tasting, apres In ‘N Out Burger festivities back at BW, and alas, on my 900th TN, my first sadly, badly, irredeemably corked bottle! Next time, perhaps, since you have a few in the bullpen. Guess we’ll have to crack that Ovid.

Beautiful nose but doesn't quite follow through on the palate. I've had some bottles that are more open but mine seem to be pretty closed down still but there feels like a great wine lurking underneath. 92+

Winey. Saddle sweat. Pheromones. Manure. Little fruit - all tertiary on the nose. Tightly knit, tannic structure still there, beautiful fruit, tannic, acid balance, so complete and perfect. An understated, classic wow. Love it.

This is getting close to mature. It only took 26 years. But it was worth the wait. The wine is regal, plush, opulent, and intense with layers of perfectly ripe, powerful, strong black and red fruits, truffles the size of footballs, a bowl of Valrhona chocolate, and an orchard of ripe berries. The wine is palate-staining with its non-stop intensity. This is a muscular Pomerol with a refined edge that offers a thrilling tasting experience. In another decade, this could be a triple-digit wine. My instincts say it is highly possible. Drink from 2024-2050.
