    October 28, 2023 - Rich, deep colour. From opening was already very expressive. Rich dark berries and plums, toasted coffee and oak. Really very well balanced tannins, surprisingly round for St Julien

    August 13, 2023 - Ripe blackcurrant, toasted oak and hint of black pepper on nose, disappointingly linear and flattish on entry for this price.

    April 2, 2023 - Pop and pour at lunch. Corked and took home, notes from about 10 hrs open, with lots of walking in between. On the nose: graphite, blackberry, soft cedar toast, spice. On the palate: solid acidity, blackberry, charcoal, cedar, sweet blueberry, lovely tannin.

    Hmph. Oxidized on Day 2 open. Drink up.

    March 18, 2023 - This is classic Bordeaux from a classic vintage! Black fruit, some graphite, and just a hint of greenness. Good length. Best on the 3rd day.
