Actually still a baby, score could go higher with more cellaring. Intense but somehow light, layers of black and blue fruit. I had the 2018 recently at W&S Top 100 tasting. This is a cuvée to follow!

Tasted over two nights. Needs a good decant or 6-12 hours at this age to shine. Smoothed out by 24 hrs Moderate plummy nose. Dark fruit, violets with a medium finish Will hold my next bottle for a couple years before diving in again.

Decanted 2+ hours. Drinking well, but would benefit from a few more years in the cellar.

Better on second day. Still needs time or a two hour decant.
Classic notes of Cassis and dark fruits.

I didn't even know they made this type of wine, shame on me. Really nice dark plum notes with black cassis and coconut/oak note. I like it.
