9.5

1989 vintage. Tasted 5.5.23 (9.5), 4.4.23 (6 different btls-avg 9.4) and 12.9.22 (9.6). Above average fill for the age and impressive cork (about 70% saturated). Decanted and tasted over the course of two hours. Threw a decent amount of powdery sed. Medium nose slightly muted for the first 10 minutes or so but then came roaring to life. Yes, still the hallmark blueberries and cocoa powder along with a dash of raspberry but bigg graphite with this bottle. Drank consistently great for 1.75 hours, then seemed to lose a little steam at the very end. Not improving but still think cellar dwellers need to be popped in the next five years to enjoy the magic before it fades. 3.28.24. — 22 days ago

9.0

About 50/50 Merlot - Cabernet Franc, deep Ruby red color with aromas of red fruits, floral and spicy oak notes. On the palate flavors of cherry and plum with notes of cacao, oak and spice. Firm drying tannins, medium savory finish, ending with fruit, spice and slight earthy notes. Organic! — 4 months ago
