2h decant. Shows that cut garden hose note. Iron & Bramble. Taste is underwhelming for a Pax. I wanted meaty funk. I got diluted creme de cassis. Lots of structure remains. — 6 months ago

9.5

2019 vintage. Truthfully, I have underscored this wine the last two times I’ve had it (this last Nov and 3 weeks ago). Scored it 9.3 both times but it’s a 9.5. It just keeps impressing. Body is biggish but never syrupy/overwhelming. Flavors and textures come hurtling into your palate. This is so well made and delicious. — 5 months ago
