Nov 5th, 2021One would think for a small vintage like 2007 this would be open now. Well its not. We decanted two hours before, which helped. Its a very classical VCC with all the tell tale Pomerol stuff in spades. Would wait another 3 to 5 years. Great stuff.

Feb 15th, 2021A very dense but elegant, weightless wine, lavender, mint, spices and black fruit, all with the most civilized tannins you will find on the right bank. Enthusiastically recommended !
