Opened about 30min before service; enjoyed over the course of several hours. The 2010 currently pours a deep garnet color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with significant staining of the tears and some signs of sediment. On the nose, developing with dark cherry, blackberry, plum, raspberry compote, pencil lead, licorice, mint, forest floor, tobacco, green bell pepper, cocoa and fine baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin, medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and slightly bitter. The nose is the star with such a complex perfume; I could spend the entire night with my nose in the glass. A lovely Fourth Growth. Drink now through 2040+. — 3 months ago
Never mad about opening Gonon. Delicious as always. Will be really incredible years down the line. — 7 months ago
This was young and went through many phases of open and closed with no rhyme or reason. This was surly at times and superbly expressive, gritty NSG’ey and also sweet and floral. But also closed shut a few times. It is all there but hold off 3-4 years. — 2 years ago
