After stumbling on the 2010 and again being blown away by the 2015, I was so enamored by this producer that I contacted them, asking for recommendations on a hidden gem. They immediately responded 2016! I tried it in person at UGC, with the owners of the property and was too embarrassed to disagree. I love 2016 and think its the best vintage of Bordeaux for the long haul, above and beyond 2009,2010, and 2015 and 2018. But....Here, you need lots of patience and for me...Another case of the 2015 please. HOLD____Its got lots of power under the hood.

Decanted for 60 min, the tannis were still there, but worked with the steak, needs though more time until 2026.

Double decanted for about 3 hours before tasting. Paired with grilled T-bone steaks. Juicy and delicious! More rustic than I remember from my last tasting, the nose was full of fresh red fruits and a bit of smoke. These qualities carried through on the palate. Really quite delicious.

Served directly from the wine fridge, nose delicious, taste very fresh and stunning good, in this hot weather you need, that. Next day more normal temperature and very different, I prefer them cooled.

Completely closed at this time, imho. Doesn't seem flawed or anything. Had higher expectations given recent tasting of other left bank 2016s.
