This one has really pulled itself together since my first bottle in 2014. Ripe red cherry, leather and just a touch of barnyard. The palate is balaced with sweet fruit and good acidity, mid-palate is notable and finish long.

There is a medicinal and alcohol note followed by dark red fruit. Palate is thin with acidity dominating. Not bad with food but hard to enjoy on its own. Disappointing. (82)

15 months ago totally different. Was very dull and showed not too many traces of life. Seemed to be a slight oxi situation. Monotonous dark cherry fruit. Was drinkable, but really a pleasure! Something for the sauce pan!

This 02 has reached a harmonious phase of development. Certainly well oaked, with time the wood has integrated and the fruit has no plans of going anywhere soon. Lovely drinkability!

Too oaky. Blurred fruit. Last bottle was a lot better.
