Off and running on PNP. Strong perfume- savory aged sweet dark berry, black tea, and sous bois nose. Dark palate, more tea, earth, iron. Pretty aged fruit upfront still driving and expressive. Good balance but finishes with some drying tannin. Drinking well overall and for my taste at peak/ just over. Tough Meadows score on release and this certainly aged better than predicted.

a soft nose and palate of black tea, balsamic scents with soil, antique furniture and a whiff of cedar come through with both black and red fruits. Supple tannins and not sure if this bottle breathed too long? I would like to revisit this again as the layers were present but fleeting and seemed out of focus. Elegant mouthfeel.

Dark red in color, nose of red fruit, finish lacking in layered complexity. a bit overpriced given its Grand Cru status.
