Very ripe, pungent, super expressive with a unique aromatic profile. Overall very generous, fresh and approachable. Can see why all the hype; but a hint of something microbial on the finish after air raises a question mark.

Day 2: Knew it. It’s mouse! 🐁

One of the most exciting bottles of Bordeaux I’ve had in a while. Merlot and Cab Franc. Elegant and beautifully balanced, and alive.
