This seemed a little light on the finish. The 76. La Tache is much better — 5 days ago

Deep and meaty. Iron and plush plum. Herbs and blood. Rounded and perfectly resolved. Spectacular — a day ago

Pours a dark crimson with no noticeable bricking or faded meniscus. Starts off with a clear menthol scent that thankfully receded. What emerges is wonderfully complex aromas. Layers of flavors and aromas emerge. Black cherry, pine needles, slightly smoky and herbal. This has structure for days. The acidity has always been prominent in this wine but it's finally starting to integrate. Tannins are firm but not intruding. What a wine and a joy to drink. I will drink my 2 remaining bottles in the next 5 yrs. — 7 days ago

Ouvert le matin et laissé en cave pour une lente aération. Un nez époustouflant, magnifique, complexe, des couches d’arômes se succèdent à un rythme incroyable, fraises, fruits rouges, rose, épices, probablement un des plus beaux nez de DRC que j’ai bu. Une bouche d’une finesse et d’une élégance sans pareil, pas le plus puissant mais quelle classe et profondeur, d’une longueur inouïe. Bu sur 4 heures juste pour en garder pour l’évaluer et n’a jamais bougé.

Open in the morning just to give it a slow dose of air, the most incredible DRC nose ever and i am lucky to have drank quite a few, and one of the most amazing nose on a wine i ever saw. Layers and layers of complexity. The palate is classy,elegant, deep and gorgeous, not the most powerful but what a wine, the length is unbelievable. — 23 days ago

No formal notes on this one ….Yellow lemon colour . Some fine persistent bubbles. Open and quite fresh on the nose , still good intensity , nice slightly mineral with lemon , toasty notes , brioche . Good length and intensity on the finish. This does taste fresher than the original release bottles I have had . This was released in 2017 and has a special back label mentioning this . Drink now and over the next 5-10 years . Drank at Noizé, London. — 13 days ago

Loads of sulfur and zip. Bright high toned lemon, sizzling minerality,. Gorgeous in the mouth. Long and dramatic. Still young — a day ago

The good stuff ;) Hell ya. Dark fruit tannic bomb. Silky and sexy. Decanted, just barely hitting a drinkable stage. Could use 10 years, 20 years, 30 years (!) in the bottle … but who the f*ck is going to live that long? So drink now and enjoy! — 14 days ago

High fill, perfect cork. Dense red and dark fruit, somewhat developed. No signs of fruit fading. A little bit of forest floor. Was expecting it to be a lot more developed, presumably this bottle had a long way to go. I wish I had another… — 12 days ago
