Moderate ruby in the glass. Nose is now showing mostly primary fruit - loads of red berries and some plum. Medium-bodied, tightly-knit, nice brush of tannins. Needs time as it's not displaying its full character right now.

Really enjoyed this. Upon tasting I got hit with a strong note of strawberry with some clove spices on the back end. As I kept drinking I identified the tertiary note as ginger. I loved the complexity this is already showing. Buy a case and drink 6 now, and hold 6 for another five years.

Louis Jadot 2018 Vintage en Primeur Barrel Tasting (Brasserie Margeaux - Chicago IL): Walk around tasting. From barrel sample that was assembled in the fall and shipped to the US then. Lots here with combination of ripe red and black cherry and a meatiness that I enjoy, but makes it seem background. But that's young Corton. Very god 91-92+ point potential, 2030-..

Mineral-fruit mix, lovely black grape skin, elegant, mid to low-weight bu charming and sort of subtle; a little loose knit in mid-palate. Jadot Tasting at Angler

Wine Spectator 40th Anniversary; 10/21/2021-10/23/2021 (Marriott Marquis): Really surprised me drinking this next to the Oregon project. This is big and fruity and a lot heavier in style. Interesting.
