Drank this after dinner, where I have already had plenty of wines (17 Almaviva, 17 Emmanuel Rouget Echezeaux GC, 10 Joseph Drouhin, 21 Occidental). My guests wanted more, so we tried this. It was taken out of a cooler meant for Chardonnay/desert wines, so the temperature was too low to really enjoy the full aroma and taste of this wine. Making matter worse was that I was a bit buzzed and couldn't really appreciate the details of this. A bit disappointed. Next time I will serve it better under a more appropriate temperature.

BYO Litteraturhuset "Best Wine": Ungdommelig, lys, klar rød. Herlig, "burgundersk" og lett parfymert duft av røde bær. Pur-ung, fersk og åpen smak med energisk intensititet og en ren, stram syreprofil. Smak følger duft med et intenst, rødt bærpreg, særlig bringebær. Flott tekstur og struktur som gir en veldig god munnfølelse.

Dinner at The Grill with DJCV: A fine wine with with lovely red fruit. Well balanced and drinking with more pleasure now than the ‘18 clos du chateau. A very polished wine that is drinking so beautifully today.

Tasty, though a knowledgeable friend remarked that it was almost new world in style - perhaps a touch oaky. It didn't seem opened too young, just a touch clunky.
Of course, expectations are always sky high when opening L-B. A 17 CdC opened last year was markedly better (and one of my favorite wines of 2021.)

Winetasting dinner Raveneau, Rousseau, Liger Belair, DRC (FB (E.S.)): Ruby colour. Red fruit, licorice but also tobacco(!). Fruity. Medium tannins. 93+
