  Double decanted and followed all evening. Pretty big contrast to the SQN (no surprise) with higher-toned fruit (red and black) and floral notes. So vibrant and, to my tastes, much more interesting. Last glass was the best as it was really firing at the end of the night.

  Commanderie des Costes du Rhone - Fall 2022 Intronization (Aquavit): Truly beautiful, classic, a bit of the iron ore, some mineral. A bit gamey. It's really just the structure and elegance of the wine that makes it special. From a magnum. I went back for seconds.

  Epic Bordeaux for an Epic Birthday!; 9/1/2021-9/12/2021 (Paris & Bordeaux): This was an indulgence from some friends to let me feed my Rhone kick. It's also quite young and can use some more years but it is quite lovely. A bit of that black fruits, herbal and just a slight metallic tinge to it. I am a fan of these wines.

  Thierry Allemand Tasting (Restaurant de Chine): Double decanted. Whole dark fruit, quite fresh, chocolate, inky, fresh florals, orange fruit, spicy. Almost chewy texture, longer than Reynard on the finish, but thinner. 92-93

  Lovely, savory nose of dark fruit, olives, brine, and herbs. Great acidity, medium tannins, with tart black cherries, olive brine, and blackberries on the palate. Along finish. This is drinking surprisingly well — very pleasurable and giving, but will certainly improve with more age. I’d say drink one now, wait 5 years for the next bottle.
