  Cabernet and friends: Plum and milk chocolate aromas. This is still a bit tight and could do with another 5 years or so in the cellar, al dente tannins with good acid spine, dark plums and earth notes. Lovely.

  26022023 - 5 ⭐️ luncheon hosted by SKT with 14 bottles of wines & 2 aged cognacs. Our 2nd round of 4 bottles tasted blind curated by SKT. Horizontal 2010 from 4 great producers. My fab red of the day which I initially guesses as Bordeaux Blend from Napa. Delicious & brooding dark cherries, vanilla, creme de cassis, some game & undertones of dark spices at the background. This has great layers and texture, providing a fleshy but yet juicy tannins. Well balanced throughout the palate with elongate finish

  Colour still has a purple hue. Nose showing tobacco. Palate has a little fruit left up front and then a spicy finish. Really full mouth feel and lots of fine structured tannins. Great finish tops this off as a great wine.

  Right in prime time drinking. Loads of sediment too. Will make bauxite someday. Warm and luscious black fruits on the palate, this bottle not much savory so drinking now is a joy but I think can go further.

  Had over BBQ at friends hence only brief notes. A couple of hours of slow-ox was good enough, but I would advise for a quick double-decant instread. Luch and voluptuous with surprisingly dark cherry fruit framed by aging notes of forest floor and leather. Slightly perfumed top notes add to the complexity. I never tasted this young but this appeared in a fantastic drinking spot right now with easily 10+ years of aging potential left.
