2013 in 2021. This is delightful. Big balanced and drinking well but room to age great surprise. — 4 years ago
So in the battle is who is the best child... we paired the 88 vs the 90 (son vs daughter birth year). Both were outstanding but the 88 had more age in the color and softness on the nose and palate. Family currently arguing over density but for me the 90 was more dense. Lots of mixed fruit leather smoke and terroir which is very French but great for those who enjoy it. So in the name of family peace we rate both as outstanding but the 90 (the daughter) is a bit bigger. Cheers — 8 years ago

A spectacular bottle of wine fruity floral nose and palate with acidic finish doing very well — 2 years ago
First reaction is modest nose and too much alcohol which was confirmed with a harshness on tasting. Sign Ivan the tannins hiding rip plum and cherry. Probably should have waited 3-5 years. An 8.3 at this stage so over priced. — 4 years ago

I would agree with the roses and cherries but this had a gentle smokiness that was delightful. Still nice acidity and good for more years. Cin cin — a year ago
