Same comments as before. Needs at least 30 min airtime to start singing. Such a lovely wine. — 2 months ago
Drinking very well now. Black fruit, great mouthfeel. — 2 months ago
A young wine, that will only get better. It’s big and bold, big ripe red and black fruit. Big chewy tannins that have softened up a bit but are still bold. Solid acidity, gonna age well. Also getting licorice, pencil shavings. Very good, will save the rest for a few years down the road. — 2 months ago
It’s been a year and half since my last bottle. This wine just speaks to me, always has. Blueberry compote nose. Blueberry pie, blackberry, ripe fruit, fantastic mouthfeel. So easy. So glad I bought a case and a half years ago, wish I had got more. Perhaps drinking better now than ever. Wish they still made this cuvée. — 17 days ago
Inky dark. Black fruit, coffee, lots of oak, quite prominent. Nice mouthfeel. — 2 months ago
My last bottle was 3 years ago and I said it needed a long decant. That’s no longer needed! This wine is drinking fantastic right now pnp. Tannins have softened but still have a bit of an edge mid palate. Fruit is big and juicy and ripe, black and red, with hints of blue coming through as it opens up. Graphite, black licorice, pencil shavings, pipe tobacco. Really lovely flavor and structure. Finish is a bit light but overall drinking in its prime now! And fantastic for a 2017. — 2 months ago
Incredible right out of the bottle! In perfect harmony - delightfully gentle tannins and perfectly matched acidity. Blueberry liqueur, blackberry, baking spices, wet granite, dark chocolate, pipe tobacco. Absolutely incredible mouthfeel, soft, silky, gentle. With a nice long finish. What an enjoyable and pretty much perfect wine! — a month ago

Almost 3 years since my last bottle of this and my notes are very different. Thought this would be drinking well now but it’s still tight on open. Bright ruby colored, big red cherry and tobacco nose. Red fruit, earthy, tight. — 2 months ago
