2018 vintage. Last tasted 8.9.21 (9.3), 2.25.22 (9.3), 3.7.22 (9.4) and 11.19.22 (9.4). Never had much baby fat but even less now and really starting to knit together. Wow. So close to a 9.5. Light-medium/medium body. Mostly front-palate punch still but dusty fruit and tannins transitioning and sliding that driver’s seat back more than a bit. 5.27.25.

May 28th, 20252018 vintage. Last tasted 3.7.22. Classic structure and fruit balance. Impressive finishing length. A Margaux fave, especially at the current going rate. Light-medium body. Carry that weight and same as it ever was.

Nov 19th, 20222018 vintage. Back at it. Last tasted 2.25.22. This bottle a little heavier on the cocoa powder, herbaceousness and body along with a tad more punch. Bumping up the consistent 9.3 (3 btls in the last 8 months) to a 9.4. A fave bang for the buck/QPR Margaux producer.

Mar 7th, 20222018 vintage. Opened it yesterday and it wasn’t playing. Came back to it today. Big. Rich and full in the mouthfeel. Medium-bodied. A bit more straightforwards than the 2017 vintage. Lux.
