Wow - what a burgundy. Not sure it rises to the level of some of the best wines I’ve had but it’s close. Obviously the pricing is now absurd - but this was courtesy of my father in law who bought on release. Quite full bodied and definitely no where near over the hill. Vibrant color, great acid, wonderful balance, full mouthfeel, and beautiful fruit. — a month ago
2018 opened Jan 2023. This has a wonderful nose—tobacco and cardamon on the nose. Strangely the fruit is not on the front of the palate—rather there are mineral high notes on the front rather the back of the palate. Pleasantly soft-level tannins hold all the components together. The fruit shows up on the back of the palate. Medium long finish that’s slightly tart but pleasant. — 12 days ago
Enjoyed it for Christmas 2022 for the aperitif with blinis caviar and scallops bacon — a month ago

Still going strong at age 12. I don’t know if there is room for further improvement but definitely not in it’s tertiary phase — 4 days ago
