wow. Exceptionally plush and deep. Luxuriant red and blue fruit but with a sappy soft plasticine quality. Really plush and lush and delicious with great clarity and purity. Again, wow

What a nose. Impossible to describe. A nice mustiness but beautiful flowers. Some earth balance. Not replicable. Could go a few more years. Still tannic although nicely integrated. Just magnificent.

From mag. This is special. What a nose! Orange, rose, cherry. So soft and defined. Acacia, floral notes. Exceptional stuff.

This was one of the best showings of the DRC RSV. Perfect 100 pt nose with a full display of the red & black fruits, soaring Asian spice in an elegant, floral style. Happy New Year!

Crazy good! The 02 is such a great vintage for DRC & this was drinking well. Polished & finessed with soaring aromatics.

A baby. Should have been double decanted at 10 in the morning. Stalky. Initially had a sulfur, pyrazine nose. That blew off, but the wine didn’t really come into balance. Wait 5-10 years. NR.
