  Surprisingly ripe and warm style. Distinct notes of leather, showing this has some age. Palate tingles with the lively acidity and tannins. Medium weight, good structure supports the dark fruits here. Medium length, some complexity. Drinking now. Will continue to improve for another decade.

  Jammy nose, immediately open-knit fruit and soil. A bit simple but balanced and well made. 91

  Served blind, it was the wine of the night. It seems we got an overperforming bottle reading the other comments, but this was great at the nose with pepper, herbal, hearthy, red and black fruits. A very intense palate wth great balance between acidity and tannins followed by a long finish. Great wine and still young!

  Easy and simple. Definitely better than many 2011s. Came across as quite fruity without any greeness. Once of the best values in Bordeaux.

  23032023 - bottle breath for an hour & drank with a Riedel tumbler glass while otr in SG.
  Nose: initially some funk replaced with black fruit, some raspberry, cassis, slightly cured & smoke game, lime stone & slate.
  Palate: medium body with mid + acidity, austere, crunchy tannins, still grippy and unresolved.
  Mouthfeel: tannins tends to stuck to your teeth & palate. Definitely needs a little more time. Maybe 2-3yrs to allow the tannins to integrate better
