  The nose wasn’t showing much but the wine is dark brooding and powerful wine. Impressive. I didn’t get a chance to go back to this one.

  En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): From magnum
  Rich, polished and lovely dark hued fruit with grip on the mid palate. Note: My first tasting was reasonably early, but this was overtaken by cork taint over the evening. Didn’t impact my rapid tasting but I am marking this flaw.

  In very good condition indeed. Fully mature but not past it. Understated sweet blackcurrant and plum fruit still present on the palate, against a background of cigar box and dead leaves. More extensive note not taken; it complemented duck confit perfectly.

  Fantastisk doft direkt, stall och sårskorpa, rosor och bläck. Efter ett tag kommer lite sötare röd frukt fram tillsammans med läder och lite rök.
  Även i munnen är det rätt söt mogen frukt men förvånansvärt låg syra. Tanninerna är obefintliga och det är verkligen en njutning att dricka även om jag tycker den hamnar i skymundan bakom La Fleur Petrus.
