Floral, herbal, light yet dense, dried red cherry, black cherry, lavender, thyme, smoke, menthol 😍 Very layered and kept evolving as time went on. Really a gem!

Funky on opening. After a four hour decant, it hits its stride. This is mostly tertiary—mineral, earth, old leather. Tannins are soft, resolved. Quite good. Definitely needs the air.

Nose: dark and serious with major tobacco. Hints of vegetal tones. Lilacs as it opens.

Palate: still fresh. Tobacco. Dense dark berry fruit.

Like a lecture on Hegel. Very serious.

As this opens more delicious and less ungiving. Beautiful silky texture.

3 hours in getting crazy. Nose has these gorgeous dense florals. So complex. Pink roses. This is why we drink wine. Still so fresh on the palate. Long.

Very unique style old school Bordeaux made from concrete vats. Incredible the Elegant and intense noses of pirasine achieved in this wine which has never been through any type of wood or barrel.

Robe brunie
Assez réduit et animal
Attaque floue et cacaoté avec une absence de matière manque de chaire
Je suis déçu je l avais déjà déguste meilleur
