Enjoyed with Vegas room service burger. Good but not great. Lovely balance, vibrant core in it, and some of that Cornas thrill. On the first night not fully resolved, on the second a hint of oxidation. Still feels like the right course to be drinking through these.

Planning to drink through my last bottles of this, based on how variable they’ve been. This was a good one. Real grip and bite, some dark fruits and an almost cote de beaune savoury strawberry character to it. The only thing that stopped this being the best bottle was that there was actually not quite *enough* screeching acidity. I’d been thinking they were close to over the hill but I wonder if it’s more that they’ve just always been very variable.

Stemmy nose, vegetables. Cabbage. Slightly burnt fruit as well. Somewhat interesting initially but starts to fade. The weakest wine in the set. Granit 60 tasting chez Lillelund.

Initially disappointed, this is funky, aging on the nose. Maybe needs air. Better on day 2, tighter, more precise - funkyness os gone. #ParisTasting#ChezMoi

Popped and poured at Wood Tavern. Clean as a whistle. Real depth to it. A certain savoury element. Up there with the best of these.
