Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2016 pours a deep ruby/purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe black and red fruits: cassis, blackberries, raspberries, red plum, tobacco, a touch of bell pepper, earth, old wood, and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. A classic expression of Bordeaux during a period where the lines between New and Old World have been blurred. This is tasty and showing well in its early drinking window. Drink now through 2036+. — a month ago

Red bell pepper initially entice the nose, soft baking spices follow. As it opens, stewed plums evolve. Velvety plum dominates the palate with herbal undertones. Earthy enough for mushroom dishes, strong and bold enough for beef. Softly masculine and approachable. Tannins are very fine and the finish is very feminine. It simply disappears from the room without a goodbye. — 20 hours ago

Direct from the winery. Pristine and exquisite. So well behaved on the nose and palate. Intense fruit cake and blueberry pie. So much weight, yer balanced. Tannins have softened but still prominent. Stellar presentation overall.
