2016 vintage. Need to order some more of this-pronto. Obviously too young but firing on nearly all cylinders at this point. The go-to BDX for those that want to drop coin on BDX but aren't familiar with BDX. For those of us that are familiar with the area/wines, this producer and vintage are delivering overtime. Voluptuous and sexy mixed with just enough down to earth(iness). Drinking phenomenally now. Too youthful to accurately speculate on the end game/potential of this vintage now. Much of the baby fat is gone yet there are a few strands left. Going back to the 1988 vintage, this is in my top three Cos offerings- like now, man... 4.29.23 — 7 months ago

2006 vintage. Decanted and tasted immediately, after 30 minutes and 2 hrs. Unexpected amount of frontal palate richness mitigating back-end tannins. Still has years to go. 10.18.23. — 2 months ago

25 years young. So many tertiary flavors of leather and tobacco. Peaked right in the middle of dinner. A nice finish to the end of a wonderful vacation. 4/20/23 — 8 months ago

Green reflexes . Quite open and easy at first yellow fruits , lemon confit , touch of roasted nuts . After a while a bit more chalky . Quite round on the palate, good concentration , mineral on the end . Doesn’t have the razor like intensity or length of the 2012 , nor the minerality . However very enjoyable now and for the next 20 years — 6 months ago
